I am too! Glad to hear some others appreciate the potential. :-)

Ree wrote up a web-based sysop "control panel" that uses MQTT:
https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/tree/master/webv4/components/webmonitor
I tried setting up up but didn`t have much success, so I`m not
sure how far along it is. But I seem to recall at least one other
sysop successfully using it.

Yeah, that`d be cool.
I was thinking QT myself for a future cross-platform replacement for
the Synchronet control panel (sbbsctrl) for Windows. But when attempting
(in QT) to recreate the same 4-main panel docksite interface we have to
today in sbbsctrl, I wasn`t successful. I do plan to take another stab
at that in the future. Also considering using wxWidgets.
