But I think for clarity it's still better to have the desktop app be in its own separate repo. If the Fluxer server requires the frontend to be there then it can still be in this repo as a submodule, and when install instructions for the server are added you'd just need to make sure to include the `--recurse-submodules` in the git clone commandRemoved: ### ChecksRemoved: Removed: - ☑ I searched for existing issues and didn't find a duplicate.Removed:

Put the Fluxer desktop/web app in its own repo?

Problem

I just don't understand why the web app is implemented in the same repo lol, I think if someone is looking for specificaly the source code for the app they should be able to find a repo with just that

Proposed solution

Put it in its own repo :p (Maybe keep it in this repo as a submodule after, see notes)

Notes (optional)

I guess maybe the reason why this is on its own repo is because the server needs a default web frontend for when one enters the website? And obv the desktop app is Electron which just kinda loads a webpage so it would make sense. But I think for clarity it's still better to have the desktop app be in its own separate repo.
