Welcome to my running collection of tips, tricks, and scripts about self-hosting and DIY. Outwardly, this is my “ living resume” to showcase how I leverage my technical abilities in non-technical roles. Inwardly, this is something I can refer back to for items that don’ t quite belong in my internal documentation, but are more in depth than a Mastodon post.
