I've just initialized the repo and made some scaffolding code for the GUI.

If you'd like to get involved, DM me and I can provide some more info and a link to the repo.

LTS releases are planned and regular plus the documentation is absolutely phenomenal. It's LGPL licensed which won't be an issue with desktop use. Likely the largest project that uses Qt is KDE Plasma, so I'd be willing to bet quite a bit on its stability in the future.

As far as a CLI app would be concerned, that's not really what I'm hoping for. My motivation for the project is to get an official Gospel Library Linux/MacOS application and access to the Church's API, resources, etc. I imagine that it would need to be almost identical to the official application on Windows, so GUI would be required.

With that being said, for an initial prototype my focus won't be on visuals, but the functionality. But honestly only so much I can do with just the text of the scriptures. I think everything else is owned by the Church.
Agreed, though it would be fun to build a [bubbletea TUI][https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea] I for us nerds.
