Self-hosting, including this website

This website, built with Eleventy, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, is hosted on an Oracle Cloud Free Tier AMD Compute Instance. I use Proxmox, NixOS, Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes, and ZFS to self-host various services, including media servers, productivity tools, and network utilities.

This website is built using a combination of Eleventy, custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and is version-controlled with Git. It's hosted on an Oracle Cloud Free Tier AMD compute instance, giving me full control over deployment and performance without incurring extra costs.

Beyond this site, I maintain a broader self-hosted ecosystem using a mix of on-premise hardware (homelab) and cloud infrastructure. My setup leverages modern infrastructure tools including:
