web interface

Browser-based control panel

A web interface is the part of a software system that users access through a web browser rather than through a dedicated application.

It allows interaction with databases, services, or devices via standard internet protocols: The router's web interface lets you configure network settings.

Most modern software offers a web interface alongside or instead of traditional desktop applications.
