An admirable goal :)
I've written a markdown to gemini converter in Python though, if that's
helpful/useful.

I've been thinking about setting up a demo server that converts
markdown to gemini on the fly using it, might be interesting. Although
I didn't really write it with performance in mind, so I'd have to see
how it plays out for longer documents.

Yeah, I came across that and it works great! I just felt like trying towrite my own thing in Rust because it's fun, though I'm cribbing yourparagraph link mode for Exarch.
(One of my other project ideas was a fancy terminal-interface clientwith color support, and then I found amfora... so instead I justpackaged it for NixOS and decided to write Exarch instead.)
