Serve Web Dioxus App from Desktop Dioxus App

[Codys-Wright]

I'm trying to figure out if I can use Dioxus to run the desktop app on a computer, then serve the Web version of the dioxus app to anything else thats on the local network, so I can make a control interface that phones, tablets, and other computers or other instances of the desktop app can connect to.

Does this seem possible?

The goal would be the computer runs a single application (the desktop package) and that serves the web version of the app as well, so that anything else on the network could go to the web ui at something like http:/{ip_of_machine_running_desktop}:8080.

the desktop app would be responsible for communicating with the outside world and giving that information to the local clients.

I figured out you can access the desktop app at 127.0.0.1:8080 as well even though its not for web, however, I want the desktop app to do it so that it can expose it to anything on the local network.
