Thanks for developing this tool, this is awesome! I have a very small feature requests:

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am trying to serve the web UI on my local server and let my other device access it. What I would expect is to have some flag like HOST to let the web UI listen to 0.0.0.0. Then my other device could access it.

Describe the solution you'd like
I tried to set HOST, but it seems to set the backend listening HOST instead of the FE node listening HOST as far as I can tell. And even setting the HOST as 0.0.0.0, I can still only access it from localhost:3000. Not sure if there is already some other recommended way I didn't find can help serving it and let me access it from other devices or I can try to add a FE_HOST flag. :D
