AllScan is a free and open-source web app for AllStar nodes that provides Favorites Management features, AllStarLink Stats integration, and connection monitoring and control functions. Shows your favorites in a Dashboard summary table with Keyed status, Connected Node count and other statistics. Continually scans the status of each favorite using ASL's Stats API data showing which favorites are active and have recently been active. Allows favorites to be connected with a single click (optionally automatically disconnecting any currently connected nodes first). Allows the Favorites Table to be sorted by Node#, Name, Description, Location, etc. Favorites can be added/deleted simply by entering the node# and clicking a button. These features finally give AllStar nodes similar memory management and scan capabilities that analog radios have had for decades. AllScan is mobile-friendly and optimized for ease of use on both small and large screens. AllScan follows the latest web development standards, with PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS cleanly partitioned, runs on both ASL and HamVOIP, and is very easy to install, configure, and update.
