l4d2-web-app

Flask web app for managing L4D2 servers through user-private blueprints.

Key v1 behaviors

• Public signup/login with local username/password
• Admin-managed overlay catalog
• Private blueprints per user
• Server creation from blueprints (live-linked; no per-server blueprint overrides)
• Async job model with persisted command logs in job_logs
• Desired vs actual state model
• Live logs for jobs and servers via SSE endpoints

Frontend constraints

• Server-rendered templates (Jinja)
• Vendored HTMX (static/vendor/htmx.min.js)
• Custom CSS only
• Consistent link color: #0F766E
