I sure Love that "web consol".

looks like a toned down version of webmin.
Yeah, I know it's cockpit. I'm not sure what it brings to the table. It's already possible to lock down webmin pretty heavily if I want to trust a windows admin to do linux.
It's "cockpit"; I regularly give it a try, looking for a better structured, more elegant webmin replacement; alas, cockpit has like 5% of webmin features.
But does it at least do that 5% well?
It's pretty, but not that functional. It tends to map naively underlying functions to buttons, without much thinking in actual UI or UX. It's a better, cleaner base than Webmin but it remains inferior in all and every aspect other than that.
