I wonder if anyone has embedded Hugo into gomobile or fyne yet... 👀

Just did a brief search and found basically nothing. I think that would be a fun project to hack on.

https://github.com/hwanggu-corgi/sktelecom-hugo-gui-editor/tree/master/design ^^ rather undocumented but the description reads huuuurah !!!!, if any(body|notbody) makes it , a PR would be welcome

there is ab other flutter app , with recent activity (Q3/22) https://github.com/charonX/flutter-hugo-editor/tree/master

but nowadays the question is why bother with managing and building error & deprecation-prone apps ( that would even cost ~$8/m to be installable on spyhones that people who love graphics have) with free deployment services .. and powerful GH actions/GL runners that can render semi-actively through git Personal-Access-Tokens ( see tidlywiki with the exporter to GL/GH , its hosted on the youraccount.gitXYZ.io site and can push while open through https )

the guess is that most app frameworks are deprecated before the content & functionality is widely acceptable and will be another "just-started" rotting place on gitlab (flooding "hugo editor) search :D ).

seems more reasonable to "takeover/refactor" another editor combo like cp-edit or this project and transform it into a "modern" self-hosted or "Git-Force"-hosted thingy
