Some new ideas #5

Just a quick note to myself on some interesting ideas for this app:

  • Maybe we could switch to DBus for the "reveal mountpoint" feature, thus eliminating the requirement of xdg-open tool (as seen in AppImage doesn't quite run in Arch Linux #1, not all Linux Desktop distros have it pre-installed).
  • Maybe we could switch to Elm for a more reactive and simpler UI. Or maybe we could just use websocket to keep the UI state and app state in sync.
  • If I remembered it correctly, gocryptfs now supports hardware FIDO tokens. Can we wrap it into a user-friendly UI?
  • On macOS we could probably link to the OS' webview library and have our UI rendered in a standalone window. It that feasible on Linux?
  • We could also just ditch this B-S architecture. The last time I tried, wails failed me from the beginning. Is there any new progress on other libraries / frameworks that make this possible?
