Description

Hey Roman,

I have this question how can I implement the GPG feature to sign a text for example 1- I generate a GPG key on my trezor 2- My app displays a text on text box 3- I want to sign that text

the issue I have is the user is going to plug the trezor device on the client side not on to the server any advice on this issue I am facing ? can I use trezor.js and use GPG function ?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate trezor.js GPG capabilities and client side communication via WebUSB/WebHID. Consider implementing a signing endpoint in the trezor agent that can be called from the web app using a relay server or direct device access.
