Today I got started on #pixie pages, an alternative to Github/Gitlab/Codeberg Pages:
Static site hosting from Gitea repositories
so far none of the gitea related parts are worked on, but it can seamlessly request ACME ssl certificates for *any domain* it's accessed from, which is really cool imo
How does #pixie pages work? (not yet, that's how :p)
- Gitea user adds `domains.txt` to their repo/branch for verification
- Site is available at branch.repo.user.pages.pixie.town or similar (with defaults so you can leave out branch.repo.)
- This can also be used to CNAME a custom domain to the same content
- Or a combination of A/AAAA records + TXT because you can't CNAME @
- Upon access, pixie-pages automatically requests TLS certificates from Let's Encrypt to respond
- ???
- (non-)Profit!
I kind of reached my initial goal for #pixie pages: Implementing the basic static site hosting functionality in 2 days
Still a bit more to do before i get bored of the project :p
