when do you plan to release a android version for the server?
I have just bought an android mini-PC and it would be great to install minimServer on it.

Thanks for your work!

What kind of mini-PC is this? Which version of Android is it running?

The MinimServer user interface (minim icon) won't run on Android, but the rest of the code should run OK. I could release a "headless" version for Android (similar to the NAS versions), but you'd need to install MinimWatch on another computer to be able to control and configure MinimServer. I don't think you'd find this very convenient.

I could write a new UI for Android, but this would take some time because I'm not (yet) familiar with Android UI programming.

Alternatively, I could write a web UI for MinimServer, but this would also take some time because I'm not (yet) familiar with web UI programming.

I'm still thinking about which of these UI options I should pursue first. The web UI approach is attractive because it would also run on iOS devices.
