Done some work on the rendering of gemtext in the Gemini client I'm working on.

Gemini client rendering

Yesterday I got the basic framework of my Gemini client up and going, and this evening I've been working on getting rendering of the gemtext in place. It's not the most tricky format to handle, so the parser and Textual widget to display the result have come together pretty quickly.

Creating #smolweb content using AI is like building a robot with an arm to hold a pencil to write a letter. Same for JavaScript.

If you need to teach #smolweb to your AI tools such as #claude or #mistral #vibe I share a Smolweb skill definition you can install directly.

I know that many smolweb enthusiasts refuse to use this sort of tool, but if it helps to ensure there are more smolweb sites, I think itโ€™s a good idea to share this.

Web sites that work well in Dillo

Been digging Susam Pal's Wander Console: https://susam.net/wander/

I like the way it combines human curation with algorithmic randomness, allowing you to visit other #smolweb sites without leaving "home".

Like this one - The Oldschool PC Font Resource: https://int10h.org/oldschool-pc-fonts/fontlist/

I plan on adding one to my own site as part of its next update.

Gemini client basic framework

Following on from the initial release of Wasat yesterday, I've got a very basic proof-of-concept client up and running. So far, so good. Here it is loading up my own capsule on GemCities:

Wasat - A Gemini protocol library for Python

I can't remember how and where I saw it, but just over a week ago I ran into Project Gemini. Somehow I've never read or seen anything about this before, which is pretty wild considering it's been on the go for around seven years now. As I read up on it I got more and more intrigued. I had the urge to do... something with it.

Tech advice needed. I run nextcloud on an old pc, mostly for file sharing. It's fine. I use NC Phone Track app when I'm away on the canal boat so family and friends know where I am. They *can" see the track via 'public' link to my NC server but for their convenience I embedded it as an IFrame on my blog (www.seren-boat.uk) Unfortunately Most browsers now block embeds. Is there a better, easy, solution? #iframe #embedded #SmolWeb
