Hi folks,

I'm happy to announce Twinq, a new, graphical, Gemini browser:

=

https://git.sr.ht/~bendb/twinq

It requires Qt6, cmake, and a modern c++ compiler, but no otherdependencies. It's easy on the eyes (the content, anyways), and thebrowsing/TOFU/protocol experience is pretty stable. We don't yet havefeatures like bookmarks, home pages, etc - will get to those soon enough.

Eventually we'll have installers for precompiled binaries, but for now onemust build from sources.

The goals for Twinq are- to be lightweight (well, as lightweight as any Qt app can be :) )- to have a simple implementation- to be portable

It's reasonably successful at these goals, save portability - I've only runit on linux. Who knows what's in store on other platforms! I'm hopeful tohear from one of you on that front.

Cheers,Ben-------------- next part --------------An HTML attachment was scrubbed...URL: <https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/attachments/20210112/73b47a00/attachment.htm>
