Apart from the new #Gnome effort, there also is an interesting experiment of a #Rust terminal-client with #Ratatui -- for others to start from should they feel they need some enjoyable distraction :)

#Chatmail clients typically use the Rust core library which provides all networking, cryptography, persistence, real-time networking, mail relay/server interop. Documentation to help with writing clients is scattered, but at least there are plenty examples to learn from.

@delta Out of curiosity, is there any hope of a web browser based client? Would that even be feasible? I'm asking because a friend doesn't want to consider Delta if it means yet another desktop app, but would be OK with another tab in the browser window they always have anyway.
