Report Blog Entry
finally completed the culmination of several months of work. im very
proud of myself; i am now hosting my own website off a baremetal server
in my home. i am also running librex on it, available to the public, and
plan to self-host some more useful tools on it in the near future. ill
do a more lengthy blog post on the process behind this in the near
future as well. the website is a available here.
this is definitely not anything impressive to anyone with any real
experience, but ive spent the past several months teaching myself
everything required to do this from the ground up. i built a computer
from scratch, i chose and installed a linux distribution and installed
it, i configured an apache webserver from scratch and set up everything
required to work on it remotely... blah. this took a long time to figure
out from the ground up so i think i have the right to be proud of
myself lol

Where'd you get the domain name?
i used porkbun, though i wouldn't recommend them specifically! i just asked my webdev friends what they would recommend, so i cant necessarily vouch that porkbun is better than anyone else. i have heard cloudflare and namecheap are good... (btw remember to open the ssl port 443 on your firewall because its not counted as part of "www"
it took me so long to realize why my ssl wasnt working and wanted to defeat myself in battle after i realized)
