I’m pulling much of the existing guts of the service manager service out into a separate assembly. I’m expecting this to make for a cleaner design and make testing of the various components easier.

Currently building out the configuration retrieval component. Not expecting this to be a thing of beauty at this point, but should be serviceable and make it easier to build the active part of the service code to always respond to the current state of things.

Once this is done I’ll have to build out a service access and state management component to effect the requested changes.

The real challenge will follow as I need to add a Wix installer to create an MSI to get this onto other systems.

Web UI will likely wait for a later time. It needs to be self-hosted but I’m still not sure what the right toolkit is. I also should figure out how to secure it as this will have full access to some very sensitive items.
