Should be considered as a usable WiP for now. I still need to tweak and fix some things in my code. I'd love to get some feedback!

See https://bin.heimdall.pm/> for my personal feuille instance. Feel free to play around with it :)

Very cool!

Serious question: how do you guarantee this service will keep running given you don't monetise it?

I'd rather pay you or have the annoyance of some ads

Actually, I do not. The server it's hosted on runs other services that I, my family and some friends use, so as long as someone is using it, I'll probably keep funding it. That's not like it costs me hundreds of dollars a month, so I'm fine with that.

I'm open to donations though, see https://heimdall.pm/#donate> :)

Super neat — always on the lookout for more things to self-host! Any plans to dockerize? It would probably get more adoption if so.

Feuille is already kind of a `micro-container' on its own - it can be a static binary, doesn't need any third party libraries, chroots itself into the output folder and drops root privileges afterwards.

Though, it shouldn't be too complicated to make a Dockerfile for it.

Feel free to make one and share it, either to me directly or by making a pull request :)
