Awesome work! I personally decided against using a cross-platformframeworks for my iOS client (source herehttps://github.com/pitr/gemini-ios), since I've never used thembefore. Once you get to iOS submission to the app store, feel free toreach out, as it was not quite straight forward for my app to getapproved even for beta testing in Testflight.

Hi all,
What an amazing and inspiring community I've stumbled upon.
I've long been lamenting the idea that a web browser now takes somewhere around a billion dollars
to build. So when I came across gemini I had to try out it's promise of being able to build a
client with low effort.
So I picked up flutter and the protocol spec and made a gemini browser; deedum. This is really cool
to me cause I probably spent less than 16hours on it, mostly fighting fixed width font rendering in
flutter and it's also my first real app.
It's awaiting review in the android playstore, and I'll be trying to get it building for iOS and
into the app store. I'll also look into what it takes to get on fdroid.
Here's the repo
https://github.com/snoe/deedum
If anyone wants to jump in you are more than welcome!
A couple things I ran into:
It's missing client certs, its not clear to me if they actually should be transient or just fully
user managed. They have cool potential though!
Some sites don't seem to close the socket after sending a response, this could be me doing
something wrong but gemini://mozz.us:1965/journal/ is one example of such a site.
`ncat --ssl -c "cat test.gmi" ...` is great for testing, and also proves what a great idea gemini
is.
Thanks!
