This aims to provide a repository for all of my services that hopefully will be of use to myself and those reading as well.
General Information
Okay, so if I love self-hosting so much, why is this on GitHub? No self-hosted wikis like Bookstack, DokuWiki, or Wiki.js? Simple, accessibility.
If my server decides to explode or the neighborhood internet goes down, I can’t access my documentation when I need it the most. Yes, having multiple backups are important. Yes, I could use a VPS for improved uptime. But being able to access this information without jumping through additional hoops is a win for me.
