Welcome to penwing's website.

I am self hosting some stuff

urls use
❄ www.penwing.org this website
πŸ” search.penwing.org search engine
⌨ git.penwing.org git server
🎬 movie.penwing.org media collection
πŸ“ storage.penwing.org storage
πŸ“„ pdf.penwing.org pdf edition

But how ?

8 GB of RAM, 4 cores, and 1 braincell.

You never knew it, but it’s not that hard to self host some utilities, using an old computers lying around. I use nixos (yay, linux !) on it, but you could do the same on windows !

Here is my grandma's recipe :

  • chop some containers using docker
  • mix the ports with nginx
  • grab a domain name
  • and bake the urls with cloudflare

With what ?

I host my stuff on a beaaauutiful server :

  • boiler (an old hp desktop with 8GB of RAM and a 2nd gen i5 processor)
