Description: | |
Today's Port of the Week is about Lagrange, a gemini web browser. | |
Lagrange official website | |
Information about the Gemini protocol | |
Curated list of Gemini clients | |
Lagrange is the finest browser I ever used and it's still brand new. I | |
imported it into OpenBSD and so it will be available starting from | |
OpenBSD 6.9 releases. | |

Lagrange is fantastic in the way it helps the user with the content | |
browsed. | |
* Links already visited display the last visited date | |
* Subscription on page without RSS is possible for pages respecting a | |
specific format (most of gemini space does) | |
* Easy management of client certificates, used for authentication | |
* In-page image loading, video watching and sound playing | |
* Gopher support | |
* Table of content displayed generated from headings | |
* Keyboard navigation | |
* Very light (dependencies, memory footprint, cpu usage) | |
* Smooth scrolling | |
* Dark and light modes | |
* Much more | |
If you are interested into Gemini, I highly recommend this piece of | |
software as a browser. | |
In case you would like to host your own Gemini content without | |
requiring infrastructure, some community servers are offering hosting | |
through secure sftp transfers. | |
Si3t.ch community Gemini hosting | |
Un bon café ! | |
Once you get into Gemini space, I recommend the following resources: | |
CAPCOM feed agregator, a great place to meet new authors | |
GUS: a search engine |
