      This MagicMirror² module keeps an eye on your UI and quits app in case the UI crashes. If you combine this with the PM2 process manager, MM2 will automaticly restart after a UI failure.

          Maybe this should be a default module?

          We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

            In most cases this module should not be necessary and probably only causes confusion. I built it for a mirror running on macOS which gives some issues due to an webGL module which causes a buffer overflow after a few days of running. (Bug in WebGL).

            So this module is only there for edge cases. In most cases we just need to hunt down the bug causing the UI issue.

                macOS is the edge case. :)

                A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

                  Does it work on server only mode?

                    In that case only the server will be restarted, so that doesn’t make sense.

                      Ha, ya that’s what I saw, it would shut down server. so I guess another reason why it’s not a default module unless it could detect if running in server mode.
