How to use Android Tablet to shut down + restart applications on the Windows server on the internal network? (alien.top)

Theres a windows app that sometimes gets stuck and needs a restart on the server.

Is there any easy solution to use an android tablet as a command center with only 2 buttons. ?

I don't want to use RDP or similar connections. I'd rather have the server expose 2 buttons (maybe via an internal website?) that my tablet can just click, and voila app closed. This would also allow someone not tech savvy to close/restart it if needed.

Does something like this already exist? Or is there a blog about how to set up something like this?

Tasker can help you create tasks which basically run curl commands, and can be set up as buttons on the phone launcher.
