I've made an app that does some background calculations. I'd like to check on those from time to time, as well as on the status of the app. My first idea was to integrate a http server, that would serve me with results via a JS GUI, but I'm increasingly averse to the idea. I'm increasingly gravitating towards making a server with a ncursers interface, leave it running in screen or tmux and then go check on results from time to time. This is because I find it hard to implement a custom control using JS gui frameworks, while in text mode such a "control" is trivial. In addition, an embedded http server would require a SSL certificate for security, while a ncurses app would be automatically hidden behind a ssh server. Maybe I'm wrong?

Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
