I don’t want this to be a burden so we can do any/all/none of it. Its your bday and its flexible because I know you are busy. So at whatever priority you like I’m happy to help you with even if its not listed here.

  • Live session teach you how to connect to vm, use basic linux, edit change this static site using hugo with a goal to have it be ur main site or blog.
  • Go over how to set up and configure a server to do old school web hosting with reverse-proxy to do multiple sites.
  • Go over how to use container technology like docker to run many cool apps very easily on your own server (virtual or bare metal hardware)

long term goals

Maybe help you run node on some sort of crypto network or other decentralized federated social media things. Host your own chat rooms, transaction verifiers etc. Learn some tech infrastructure.

Bonus

I can provide you with couple year old desktop as bare metal server over the summer.

What is this site and how is it made

Current Location

For now it lives at https://test.gabriel-mennesson.com but in the futre we can migrte it to main url gabriel-mennesson.com This is built using Hugo which is a static site generator. It is running under your account on my server. I sent you info over email around xmas to login

Hugo (Generates the website)

You write pages in markdown and it is very easy to use once you get started. We will probably want to change the theme, there are many to chose from. Things to do and customize:

  1. hugo installed
  2. pick and install a theme (this one is called cactus)
  3. config file to edit some core settings (There is a ton of customization that can be done).
  4. write content in markdown text that will be converted by hugo into formatted html web pages ready to be viewed in browser. Here is a preview of what markdown lookslike….this is a sample from the .md file for this webpage (gmenne_website/content/posts/first_post.md)

### Current Location
For now it lives at `https://test.gabriel-mennesson.com` but in the futre we
can migrte it to main url [gabriel-mennesson.com](https://gabriel-mennesson.com)

Then from this generates all the html files for the site and copies them into a folder. I have set all this up for you already.

Serving website

Tell webserver (nginx for me) to serve folder of generated html at test.gabriel-mennesson.com
