You can do all this with Qt and some other GUI toolkits.

This could be a useful feature for watching remote logs, especially in
larger production environments with dozens or hundreds of nodes, each with
who knows how many log sources. Again, not specific to web apps, though
this does use web technology (not a bad thing).

This could be useful, though I feel like it might be simpler to just set up
alerting via an app you actually use more often (e.g., getting an email or
