[ANN] Alrisha: a Qt/QML gemini browser

1. Fabio (fabrixxm (a) kirgroup.net)

Hi everybody!

I'm new here! I found Gemini last week thanks to Castor being featured 
on sr.ht (:thumbup:!)

So my first thought was "I need a Gemini browser on my phone", 
obviously.


I started playing with some code and I ended up with a desktop browser 
written in Qt/QML

It's ugly and slow and sometimes it doesn't works as it should and you 
can find it here:

=> https://git.sr.ht/~fabrixxm/alrisha

Eventually I'll port it to SailfishOS :) I need it to water my 
astroplany on the move

I have another project to show, but It's not ready yet :D

Hi Fabio,

Nice work, this looks great! Happy to see another GUI browser,
and the default style is nice. Good choice with the margins,
I hate reading text that goes across the whole screen.
Tabbed browsing is also exciting!

If anyone else was unsure how to install it, cloning and then
running `make` works fine. And the `AppDataLocation` the README
mentions is ~/.local/share/alrisha/ on Linux, so
putting/symlinking your certs and keys there works.

Any hints for us? :)

Yeah, me too. The first version was full width, but it lasted a short 
time :)

Hint: CTRL+click to open link in a new tab :D

I usually just open the project in Qt Creator. I'll add a "run make" 
note to the readme ?

I hope this mail will get thru correctly. I had some problem with my 
mail server.
Sorry if it isn't threaded correctly..
