Yeah, the server hosting their assets went down (probably), the same problem you could (I hope not) face serving requests from your client, right?

It can't run only with client assets/JS, it needs a backend as well. With ElectronJs, you can use Nodejs as the backend

There is no official limit number of requests, but discussion from some forums, each TLD has a limit of 300-1000 queries each day.

In any case, you hit the limit, it will open up again. Unlike online services, they haven't been back since

Not if his requests just go directly to Whois servers though, right?
