@dmoonfire Thst sounds awesome. Did you publish your code by any chance?
@lutindiscret @adele It's been here for a few years actually! I just don't think any other clients support the p2p :P
@alex Oh cool! Is your patch published somewhere I may read?
Attempt number 1 of auto-converting my markdown based website to #gemini
Currently only available via HTTPs and various #p2p protocols but eventually I'll add a proper gemini server to my main distributed press instance for it. 🤪 Might end up coding one since it's easier than searching through all the options for something that will fit my needs.

@metasyn @makeworld I think the main thing is deciding which parts of markdown you will throw out and how you'll "gracefully" downgrade. e.g. flattening nested lists.
This is what I came up with for anyone curious.
@makeworld Yeah, I've had decent luck with Marked for MD-to-HTML and some basic extraction.
@spanin Cool! Looks like it does gemtext already. I don't think it'd make sense to include it in my node.js project directly but I can at least use their tests as inspo, ty!
@makeworld Fair! I was just about to make an equivalent in JS so gonna have a gander at your tests for inspo 😸 I think I'm gonna say "Anything but this subset of markdown is unsupported" since it's mostly for personal use.
@makeworld Is this md2gemini lib archived cause you don't want to update it or was it not working like you'd hoped? :o
Thinking of crossposting my blog to gemini.
New release! This time we have some small quality of life improvements like enabling #gemini sites to prompt for user input which enables stuff like search engines!

For real I think my ratio of "need to read source" to "docs tell me what I needed" is like 10 to 1.
Then again a lot of the stuff I need to do / work with is pretty obscure.
@nopatience I think "small bespoke apps" is where the biggest impact is. Shitty lil apps that people make mostly for themselves that they just couldn't have otherwise because they can't justify paying a programmer to make them.
Anyone here has a cross-platform GUI toolkit they love?
I'm kinda sad that there is nothing really easy out there. I remember how easy it was to just launch LiveCode (aka Runtime Revolution) create a stack and just create standalones for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
I just want to cook up some tiny GUI tools here and it seems like Tk still the easiest option.
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Exploring what a local-first cyberspace might look like in my spare time.
