A graphical control interface for Predator.
While Cortex was originally designed to work with Predator Fabric, it should also work well with vanilla Predator. However, certain advanced features may not be available when using vanilla Predator.
Cortex is a a complete graphical interface capable of controlling all of Predator's (and Predator Fabric's) core functionality. As such, when Predator is paired with Cortex, the command line becomes unnecessary, and all configuration and system management can be done through a graphical interface. That being said, Cortex is capable of working in tandem with the command line, and each interface method can be used interchangeably without conflict.
First and foremost, Cortex is designed to be easy and user friendly. While it has a wide gamut of capabilities, routine tasks are straight-forward enough for anyone with basic technical knowledge to complete.
While a graphical interface is great for simplicity, there's often times that a command line is the more efficient way to do something. As such, Cortex doesn't lock out command line changes, and is capable of being used interchangeably with the command line interface.
Cortex works through nearly any web browser, and doesn't even require JavaScript to function fully. Whether you're using a powerful fully-featured browser, or a minimalist lightweight one, Cortex should work great.
