Just got the kit!

I actually wasn’t aware that it could be run as a web service. I’d say do that.

So, I’ve done exactly this with gramps. I used a NUC running proxmox at my home.

I created a very simple https server with turnkey nginx running on the NUC proxmox instance. I host the gramps database exports there via a simple HTML page.

Tied it to a domain name and sent the link to my family, with instructions to install gramps and import the database.

EDIT: I used Let’s Encrypt for the SSL keys

This.

Not the World Canadian Bureau!

I’ve used the same Arch install from about 2018. Regular updates, several AUR packages (pikaur), a migrate to md raid home and root, encrypted root/home, major hardware upgrades; all with no issues.

The removal of python 2 was the hardest thing I’ve had to handle; but that really wasn’t difficult with understanding of the package manager.
