Well done!
Just a heads up though, there's an existing server/client app combo also named Alexandria commonly used in public schools and libraries (in the US anyway). It's more of a book inventory and check-out system, but the shared name for a related app could still cause some confusion, and might prevent schools and libraries from utilizing your helpful tool.
Just thought you should know. Your efforts deserve to stand on their own!
Thank you so much. I would be open to renaming it and even taking suggestions in the future.
Could always go with a different suffix to keep the name itself - Alexandrio or Alexandrius or something?
