There's a lot of work that PhonePresenter needs to be a really modern app. In no particular order:

Update to Electron 2.0.0
Rewrite to use websockets instead of http requests
~~Switch to RobotJS so we're not shelling out to AutoHotKey/xdotool/osascript (should be easy)~~
Investigate how to make the screenshot capture faster
Better structure the code and make it less messy!
Improve the interface (though it's not too bad right now)

I don't have a whole lot of time to maintain PhonePresenter any more, so I heartily welcome PRs to fix above issues.
