Hi Garrit,

This is an implementation detail that the protocol specification should
not be concerned with; which file exactly you choose to serve for any
given path (if a file at all) has no bearing on the implementation of
the protocol.

It is however somewhat touched on in the best practices document, at
least if you consider "/" a directory:
gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/best-practices.gmi
