Description

After switching from glances, the only thing I find I'm missing is the web service. It was nice being able to monitor my system when I wasn't home from a web browser.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore how to implement a lightweight web server in Python (e.g., Flask or FastAPI) that exposes the system metrics collected by bpytop via HTTP endpoints. Look at existing web interfaces in similar tools like glances for inspiration.
