A web server for my blog: https://github.com/cozis/BlogTech
And a distributed file system for which I'm also building a cool little raspberry Pi cluster! https://github.com/cozis/ToastyFS
Fun stuff!

I originally built this tool to see what happened if one wrote a web server from scratch and made it face the public web (I also nudged some communities to crash it intentionally). It was a fun experience and I used that small server to host my website since then.
Over time, I learned about managing a VPS and the hassle involved with certificate management. I also wanted to host multiple websites on the same server. For these reasons I worked for about a year to add virtual hosts and automatic HTTPS by implementing the ACME protocol (RFC 8555). The new server is currently hosting https://coz.is
