Summary

Hosting Your Software Services At Home

Abstract

Join in a hands-on workshop all about self-hosting led by Adam. Together we'll help each other get unblocked wherever we're at, from curious consideration about standing up a server to adding and improving smooth-running services. This workshop will focus on fundamental concepts, tools, and techniques from the FOSS book Steadfast Self-Hosting, although having and having read the book is not required.

Please visit https://selfhostbook.com/buy/ [selfhostbook.com] to get your own physical or digital copy of the book. Buying a book is the best way to show your support. If you're unable to afford a copy, scholarships are available. As you read the book, you're encouraged to join in the community chat and forum to get help and share your improvements with other readers – see https://selfhostbook.com/contact/ [selfhostbook.com] to connect.
