# TODO

## To add:

- [ ] ERR\_print\_errors\_fp

- [ ] basic fuzzer

- [ ] finger support

- [ ] offline support

- [x] showing  errors to the user

- [ ] do my own forms implementation for better performance and resizing

- [x] gemini://spellbinding.tilde.cafe/ crashes?

- [x] use XDG dirs, not local https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
