Have it spew things down a pipe to wish, you have a Tk GUI now, parse all the json with `jq`, store transient data in flat files in /tmp. You have just written the client that takes the least CPU of any other client. You have saved the world.

(I vote that you don't use Python for anything, but that's a matter of taste. "bugaugh the lambdas are so scaryyyyyyyy")

Tk only looks like shit if you write shitty code. Motherfuckers be spending 200+ hours trying to cope with shitty Bootstrap and Vue.React and then they complain that the colors of the default Tk application that took two minutes are ugly. Unstyled HTML doesn't look so hot, either.
