On a lazy day not knowing if it is `tutor plugin ls` or `tutor plugins list`, I discovered [tutor-webui](https://github.com/overhangio/tutor-webui) in the hopes that I probably won’t have to remember it ever again. There will be buttons and all I need to do it click. But I was thoroughly disappointed to learn it was actually a web-cli.
Anyway, I set out to see if I could whip one up quickly and behold the [tutor-contrib-webui-for-real](https://github.com/tecoholic/tutor-contrib-webui-for-real).
- It can run all the commands, including the ones added by other plugins
- It can stream real-time logs to the browser. I have even tried running a full `tutor dev launch`.
It primarily functions as a quick documentation for me personally, and I learnt a few commands and flags in the CLI, I previously didn’t know about.
P.S: Almost all the work is done by the [click-web](https://github.com/fredrik-corneliusson/click-web) library. I merely fixed a bug and wrapped it up as a Tutor plugin.

Neat! I’m actually working on something similar 🙂 Do you think it would be difficult to integrate stdout streaming with click-web, such that we could see the output of `tutor local launch -I` in real time? I managed to do this by hand with Flask and server-sent events (and some ugly hacks to capture stdout/stderr), but if it’s possible out of the box with click-web, then that’s even better.
I’m also wondering how easy it is to integrate and customise click-web in a bigger web app…

Click-web streams both stdout and stderr to the webpage in realtime (maybe very close to realtime, I didn’t dig deep enough).
Here is it running `dev launch -I`

Ah! I missed this one. click-web is basically a Flask app. The readme has some [notes on customization](https://github.com/fredrik-corneliusson/click-web?tab=readme-ov-file#custom-styling) and even authentication. I suspect it won’t be easy to plugin into something like a larger Django App.
