Episode Synopsis

It's time to get our hands dirty. In this episode, we move from blueprint to build, walking you through the setup of your first single-node home server. We cover hardware selection, installing Ubuntu, and deploying your very first application—a live WordPress site using Docker. We'll even guide you through the process of taking it public with a real domain name and the power of Cloudflare. By the end of this episode, you won't just have a plan; you'll have a server.This podcast episode is the audio version of our blog post: https://wanderings.skill-wanderer.com/blog/wanderers-log-2-home-data-center-day-1-practical-poc-single-node/
