The current web interface for the script manager application has basic functionality but lacks modern design, responsiveness, and user interactivity. The goal is to improve the aesthetic appeal and usability of the HTML templates (index.html, add.html, detail.html) by applying the following enhancements:

1. Add Responsiveness:

   • Use the Bootstrap framework for a responsive layout.
   • Ensure the interface adapts to various screen sizes (desktop, tablet, mobile).

2. Enhance Navigation:

   • Add a consistent navigation bar across all pages.
   • Include a logo, links to the home page, and an "Add New Script" button.

3. Improve Forms and Tables:

   • Style the form inputs and buttons with Bootstrap classes.
   • Add hover effects and striped rows for tables to improve readability.

4. Dark Mode Support:

   • Introduce a toggle switch to switch between light and dark themes.
   • Ensure the theme applies consistently across all pages.

5. Visual Feedback for Statuses:

   • Use badges or color-coded labels to display the script status (e.g., running, stopped, error).
   • Add Bootstrap toasts for notifications (e.g., script start/stop success).

6. Refactor Console Output:

   • Improve the console output style on the detail page using syntax highlighting (via Prism.js or a similar library).
   • Ensure live updates are visually clear and easy to follow.

7. General Aesthetic Enhancements:

   • Use Bootstrap cards for content sections.
   • Add a footer with copyright information.
   • Introduce subtle animations/transitions for a modern feel.

These changes will make the web interface more user-friendly, modern, and visually appealing while maintaining its functionality.
