Thoughts and Learnings

I slacked off the previous ten days without any activity related to web development. Though is recently tried YUNO HOST on my ec2 adding NextCloud, Element and trying to make my Matrix server work. I plan on to add Searx too but almost every time the ec2 goes inaccessible maybe due to its same size (1 GB RAM with 8 GB storage and I guess 1 core).

Will try viewing Brad Traversy’s tutorials and try implementing the base keyboard recognition until the next post date.
