Description

try: eel.start('index.html',mode='default', block=False, port=0) except (SystemExit, MemoryError, KeyboardInterrupt): os.system('taskkill /F /IM game.exe /T')

That's what I'm using to see about closing the localhost when I close the type. This used to work when I was still on 18.04. I don't know if it's actually due to the change and with the different Python version available between the two or if how I had it, it was just one of those hacks that worked for awhile, but it was bound to stop working at some point.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate differences in process handling between Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04, and the effect of Python version changes. Look into how Eel manages its background server and proper cross platform cleanup.
