Networking and servers • Re: GUI Web Server for Pi GPIO

Thank you, but I should have explained that the LabVIEW explanation was an example of one of my searched attempts.
I am more interested in the Pi OS solution since the LV got complicated fast.
Thanks for the links, I will check them out to see if I have explored those two.

Ah, sorry, didn't read enough.

There are a number of solutions out there. I just Googled using this search https://www.google.com/search?q=Raspber ... e&ie=UTF-8. One I found was this https://randomnerdtutorials.com/raspber ... rol-gpios/. I use Python BOTTLE for one simple project https://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/.

1) A GUI creator easy enough to learn, not too steep of a learning curve, and display somewhat professional controls/indicators.

I think this will be the biggest challenge over construction HTML using a text editor. You need to be able to make call outs from the buttons and structure needs to acceptable by GUI Web Designing tools. This includes being able to preview the page properly. I think in many cases you will have to drop out of the Web Design GUI to terminal mode. The reason is that the web page code you are creating is a template that is post processed by the custom PI Web setup.

So, for the example site I found this is what their HTML code looks like in BlueGriffon HTML Editor.


So, you may need to learn a bit of HTML but there are enough examples out there.
