Can we develop desktop app with Electron to monitor the remote windows service

I was planning to write a desktop app which will monitor the remote and local windows service status, read remote log files and display in the app.

I did search but didn't find any useful information regarding such. Is this possible to achieve this goal with Electron or node-webkit

if yes can you please suggest the direction.

NodeJS has a built-in module called OS which can give you information such as the amount of free memory, uptime, network interface etc (have a look at the docs to see all the things you can do with it). These pieces of information can be easily paired with Electron or NW.js to build a monitoring app. You can additionally use the child_process lib to build a list of running processes using child_process.exec('ps -ewwwo %cpu,%mem,comm', function (error, stdout, stderr) {...});
