Nostr View

i had a walk up to the shops to buy cigarettes and drink a glass of red wine, and to think i was like, "what to do next with #realy ?" it took a while for me to run through options but eventually i figured it out i had already prepared to be able to build proper custom widgets for https://gioui.org UI, and i remembered that it can do web interfaces, because a lot of the ideas i was pondering was related to making a web interface for the configuration i just built well, so i can build wasm based UIs that can also be transplanted to run on pc or mobile devices (any of them) so, i'm going to start with building an editor for the dynamic configuration, complete with instant action for toggles and multi-selects the other thing that occurred to me is it probably won't be that hard to integrate the "window" interface to connect the UI up to browser signer extensions, which means that is the only thing i have to do in order to get the UI to sign the requests to the API and action them later i will be able to build a full relay event console like the one in #nostrudel - and it would be able to not just publish to the relay but also broadcast to a user's chosen relays, and all kinds of other neat things that don't involve anything more than displaying images and simple plaintext are within easy reach, so, also, a relay-focused chat interface would be another project down the track so, my afternoon's work is going to be building out a little UI for the configuration and i'll see where i get to

yeah i realised that i already know how to do it and i had prepared the way by building a script to expose internal shit that the gioui.org devs had made inaccessible and impeded forking their widget toolkit loading and displaying static images is pretty straightforward, but gifs and video is problematic but if i focus on building out the tooling to do this stuff at a basic level and build up a nice widget library i can deal with the hard stuff later... stella was already chuffed at the simple openapi docs interface that essentially becomes a one-relay event console, so, yeah, one little piece at a time just like it is with realy... only took me a few days to massively refactor it and have it working almost completely correctly while shredding so much of the complexity, because i spent so much time mastering the smaller things first i feel very confident with building nostr back end stuff now, built a spider, built a two-level distributed database backend, garbage collector... gotta have foundations
