    Thought about it. Blorp is a client side rendered app. It makes it really easy to host since it’s just a collection of static html, JS, and CSS files, but not the best for SEO. From what I can tell, Google’s crawler can run JS but I don’t think Bing (which I think DuckDuckGo is based on?) can.

    It’s pretty difficult trying to share 99% code between web and “native” iOS/Android apps. I decided early on that SEO would add one too many constraints with not enough benefit. But SEO aside, I think linking back to the software somewhere in the UI would be nice so users can learn more about the app they’re using.
