Is it possible in Xojo to create a Raspberry Pi desktop app that is also a web server?
I know I could create a desktop app and then write my own web server within but was wondering if there was a way to do this out of the box.

I once wrote a desktop app that held a Web app within itself. It used Shell commands to start/stop it and get any messages. It worked OK, but I’m not sure if it would pass the AppStore tests these days.
I did it once, using two apps - one desktop and one webapp-server:
This way I created solution, where running web app server application has graphical front-end for administration in form of regular desktop app. Working on Pi.
Isnt this exactly what Aloe Express could achieve for you ?
It is posible but it is NOT a good ide. The xojo is single threaded. Handling the UI and all the sockets for a web serveris too much for it. Better to have separated apps for the Desktop and Server.
