Frontend Backend communication Plan

we need a temporary file called temp.png within codefiles to store what must be operated on.

Front end must save over the image and back end can draw on it whenever they want

Front End design

We only need 3 elements, what displays the image, what outputs, and a conversion button. For this we need:
canvas, textbox, button

canvas element:
reads file temp.png within /codefiles and displays it. If clicked will open file select dialogue which will replace what is at temp.png
stretch goal: paste from clipboard to a file
textbox:
simply outputs reading for temp.png from Backend
convert button:
initiates backend to process temp.png and will put it on textbox

update:
let's have an extra button next to convert which will say "Copy output" and basically copies from textbox to clipboard
