You can do that with gemini. It will serve whatever MIME type, and you could have a server that serves markdown files.
For that matter you can serve images or whatever binary files as individual requests (that is, not inline with another repsonse).
I've been playing with it and I rather like it.
- lal 6y agoas an early gemini convert this is one of the reasons I wish solderpunk would split the gemini protocol and text/gemini mimetype specs. gemini can serve more than text/gemini (e.g. markdown as you suggest), so embedding the text/gemini mimetype into the protocol spec seems rather like embedding the html spec into the http one
- peteyboy 6y agoI agree in part, and disagree in part. I like that gemini has a "native" markup format, and that its simple and bare-bones as it is. It's a communications baseline, and other things are negotiable between client and browser?
