[TangerineSDR] Production server for flask

[Engelke, Bill]

Rob -

I have been using flask to show the web pages & control everything for TangerineSDR. It works great when using it from a browser running directly on the Odroid.

However, there is a use case where the user might like to show these pages & control the system from his/her desktop.  For flask to work with any IP other than 127.0.0.1, it requires a production server, which in turn seems to require running in a virtual environment... some considerable complexity.  Typical example: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-serve-flask-applications-with-uswgi-and-nginx-on-ubuntu-18-04
...here we see the need to install a variety of additional things, where we clearly need to minimize the number of packages & configurations.

Do you (or anyone else on this email distribution) have any recommended course of action here?
