Hi Ejaj, One approach to this that might work well would be to have an app that exposes as rest endpoints all or similar functions that the Tuscany Shell supports at the command line, and then have a presentation layer over the top of that which provides a pretty web gui. To do those you'd need to learn about JAX-RS and pick some web framework to write the presentation layer with. I'm a little nervous that this could be quite a lot to achieve in the GSoC timeframe though, especially as you'd be having to start from scratch learning about those things. I suppose we could treat those as two separate parts, so you concentrating on the JAX-RS part first and see how that goes. I'm not sure what the simplest approach to the gui would be, you'd want a web framework with a very small learning curve so you don't spend to much time before you can get going, do you or anyone here have any suggestions or preferences? ...ant
