Description

enhancement Low Priority

How could startup of necessary processes be changed so that display resolution does not need to be in config file, and is instead sent from data collection pc to web server pc on initial link.

This may require:

  • NodeJS server process not being started until data collection process connects.
  • Not allow access to feedback app GUI until data collection app is connected.
