Solutions
These solutions are directed primarily to Smartphones, although uses on desktop computers are also considered. Originally all protocol handlers were written in native code for the operating system and installed by the user.

Was a topic in BlinkOn 15 2021-11-17 now on YouTube
- Implement registerProtocolHandler on Android a CR bug issue 178097 originally posed on 2013-02-25
- Move ProtocolHandlerRegistry to a new //component in Chromium Gerrit
- Stephen Shankland twitter @stshank Google plans to add into Chrome the ability to handle decentralized web protocols (e.g. dat, dweb, ipfs, ipns, ssb). Decentralized web = more of a peer-to-peer design, where individuals host their own content. https://t.co/W05X4ljZUe?amp=1
