# Swift Gopher

[Swift-Gopher](https://github.com/navanchauhan/swift-gopher) is an implementation of the original RFC (RFC 1436) with
support for popular features like gophermaps, and a basic (really basic) full-text search for the server.

## Why Write a Gopher Server?

Why not? The original RFC is simple enough to implement, then adding some additional features and 
checking compatibility with different clients is not that difficult.

## Why in Swift?

My original goal was to learn Swift during Advent of Code. But then I made the mistake of 
joining a private leaderboard, leading me to revert back to Python for those fake internet
points.

I also wanted to see if it was possible to write a cross-platform app in Swift.
