The URL used here is a domain name and not just an IP address. This should reduce the need to update the IP address in the code if the server, currently hosted on AWS at time of writing, needs to be restarted. The servers on AWS do not keep the same IP address if you stop and start them. The abbether.net domain is a personal one and used as a way to reduce project costs. I did not use this domain when I first wrote the code here because I did not own it. Long story short, the Covid-19 malarkey meant the project was put on hold and I ended up owning abbether.net during the first lock-down. The decision to use the domain is one of convince my end. I did not want to keep updating the code manually if the server on AWS was stopping and starting.pull/1/head
