I wanted to know if there was a neat playbook or tutorial set that one can refer to if they’re trying to set up their own static website from home?

So far I have done the following:

  1. Got a raspberypi (Raspberry Pi 2 Zero W) and raspberrypi OS installed with fail2ban ready.
  2. Installed nginx (I have not configured anything there).
  3. Written the HTML and CSS files for the website.
  4. Purchased a domain.

How do I complete the remain pieces of this puzzle?

My purpose: I want an online profile that I can share with my colleagues and clients instead of relying on LinkedIn as a way to connect. Eventually, I will stop posting on LinkedIn and make this my main method of relaying information and disseminating my works and services.

    I know it’s not self hosting, but I went with a Hugo site hosted on Cloudflare pages. That way I don’t have to port forward or worry about uptime or security.

      You can do the same on github too. It’s pretty seamless in my experience and I dont mind people seeing the source code for my blog
