A chia desktop dashboard build on the Chia RPC interface.

Since the communication with the Chia RPC inteface is encrypted we need the certificates for the services. The certificate is never transfered, it is only needed to access the RPC interface. Under Linux you can view the certificate via:

cat ~/.chia/mainnet/config/ssl/[service]/[service].crt
cat ~/.chia/mainnet/config/ssl/[service]/[service].key

If you run chia desktop on another machine then your chia client, you need to connect via local Network to the chia RPC service. You need to change the configuration in config.yaml to bind to the local IP-Address instead of localhost.

WARNING: Never expose your RPC interface publicly.

- self_hostname: localhost
+ self_hostname: 192.168.2.100 (local IP-Adress)
