Desktop - Detect if port is available before starting the server #1371
Description
What is this feature about? (1 sentence)
We need to detect if the default port for the server to run is being occupied. If so, we need to add some logic in the app in order to change it in execution time and prevent it from getting white screen instead.
Why is it needed? What is the value? For whom do we build it?
Nowadays, we have some users reporting they get white screen when open the desktop app (specially on windows) and they are unable to use it. The root cause of it is typically related to used port by another app that is preventing the desktop from starting the HTTPS server.
