@carsten One thing I wanted you to be aware of with the yarnd Web Interface and the Mobile App (_codenamed Goryon_) is that the Web Interface is _actually_ a server-side rendered UI with the smallest possible Javascript use. We designed it to be lightweight, fast and to gracefully degrade if you do not have Javascript enabled or using some other kind of browser 😅 (_as best we could_). Goryon however is built with the Flutter Mobile App framework/toolkit, written in Dart (Uggh) and uses the API.
Maintaining both codes bases and both UI(s) / Client(s) has become hard.

It is my hope that we can rebuild the Mobile App as a PWA and provide it as an installable app at app.yarn.social for all no matter what kind of device you're on, Desktop, Mobile, Android, iOS whatever. We will keep the current server-side rendered Web Interface in yarnd that ever Pod has, but I _believe_ rewriting the Mobile App as a PWA with the as close-to-as-possible codebase to the rest of yarnd will make maintenance far easier and we can then maintain feature parity far easier.
