<h2 id="homebrew-server-fundamentals">Homebrew server fundamentals</h2>
<p>The homebrewserver.club is part of a larger 'self-hosting' movement where
people try to host on-line services such as websites, mail, calendars and chat
themselves. They do so in order to avoid reliance on the corporate services of
GAFA(google, amazon, facebook, apple), with all the consequences that has. The
homebrewserver.club takes the 'home' in homebrewserver.club literally and the
'self' in self-hosting figuratively.</p>
<p>That means we try to host from our homes rather than from datacenters and for
and with our communities rather than just ourselves. We host from home from an
understanding that paying for a home internet subscription means you use the
connection not only to download but also to upload. We learn about this
together knowing that it becomes easier, more fun and empowering than when one
does so alone.</p>
<p>During the workshop, we will help participants through the fundamentals of
setting up a basic web server and all that entails. We will explore the
possibilities of low power hardware (either old or single-board computers),
understanding network topologies, re-configuring routers and exposing ports for
hosting our own websites outside of the 'cloud'.</p>
<p>Among others, participants will be learning how to:
a) access a remote computer via the terminal
b) install web server software and set up a simple web page
c) configure a router to make their server accessible from the internet</p>
<p>No previous experience is required. If you have any old computer lying at home
that you would like to turn into a server, please bring it along! Otherwise, we
will have some material available that participants can use during the
workshop.</p>
<h1 id="varia-curriculum">Varia curriculum</h1>
<p>This workshop is organised as part of the Varia curriculum.</p>
<p>The curriculum is an ongoing series of workshops in which participants are

the various practices that live within Varia. These are short intensive
master-classes or workshops aimed towards providing high level introductions as
a basis for further explorations.</p>
