<h2>How</h2>
<p>
Connections are forwarded from my server to the computer over
<a href="https://tailscale.com/">Tailscale</a>. This way I don't
need to worry about dynamic DNS, CGNAT, and port forwarding on
my router. It's served over HTTP so that it works with old
computers.
</p>
<p>
The server is running Chimera Linux and serves the site via a combination
of Nginx and a custom written Rust program.
</p>
<h2>What</h2>
<p>
The site is hand coded in HTML 4. Pages are generated from
<a href="https://github.com/mitsuhiko/minijinja">MiniJinja</a>
templates. Static pages are generated with a Makefile at build
time and served as static HTML. Dynamic pages (under the
<tt>cgi-bin</tt> path) are generated by a custom server implemented in
<a href="https://www.rust-lang.org/">Rust</a>.
</p>
<p>
The <a href="https://forge.wezm.net/wezm/home.wezm.net">source code</a>
is on my forge.
</p>
<h2>Why?</h2>
<p>
Who could say? Mostly to scratch an itch, play with Tailscale,
and pretend it's 1999 again, but importantly: because it's fun.
</p>
<h2>Compatibility</h2>
<p>
This website aims to be HTML4 Transitional compliant. It has been tested
on:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Internet Explorer 4.01 on Mac OS 8.1</li>
<li>Netscape Navigator 3.01 on Mac OS 8.1</li>
<li>Netscape Navigator 4.08 on Mac OS 8.1</li>
<li>Netscape Navigator 4.08 on Windows 98</li>
<li>modern Firefox</li>
</ul>
<p>
For the best experience the browser should support the UTF-8 text encoding
(IE and Netscape 4 onwards support this) and be at least 640 pixels wide.
Due to the nature of the table based layout used on the site it isn't
super mobile friendly, it does work ok in landscape orientation though.
