## Micropub server

[Several servers](https://indieweb.org/Micropub/Servers) exist.

We should first check if any existing implementation fits our needs:

* Free Software
* Sensible for self-hosting
  * Reasonably security (excludes PHP code)
  * Reasonably memory-efficient (excludes Java and Scala code)
  * Reasonably decentral (excludes Go code)
  * Reasonable to package (excludes Swift and Elixir code)
* Content stored in git (SQL used only for caching if at all)
* Content format is Markdown (preferably CommonMark)
* must support [article](https://indieweb.org/article) posts
* must support updating existing posts

If (as expected) none of the existing server implementations fit out needs,
we should either extend an existing backend or implement one from scratch.

### Extend Ikiwiki

### Extend/repurpose Web-UI scratchpad

### Develop server from scratch


## Micropub client

[Several clients](https://indieweb.org/Micropub/Clients) exist.

We should test and recommend the most sensible ones for our purpose.

* Android
  * [Indigenous](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.indieweb.indigenous/)

If (unexpectedly) none of the existing client implementations fit out needs,
we should either extend an existing frontend or implement one from scratch.

### Extend/repurpose Web-UI editor

### Extend/repurpose Web-UI scratchpad

### Develop client from scratch


## Explore alternatives

If neither Micropub servers nor Micropub clients fit our needs,
or if implementing either of them is too big a challenge,
an alternative might be to skip Micropub
and instead extend or repurpose an existing integrated service.
