In this way, it allows you to create applications that can be remote controlled (via wifi) without having to implement a separate GUI for your iPhone or iPad. An implementation exists for Touchdesigner (by derivative) and can be downloaded here https://forum.derivative.ca/t/remote-controlling-touchdesigner-from-ios-devices/239406/39 Additionally, an Open Source example server for MacOS can be found here: https://github.com/mji1983/TMoteSampleServer/
