Tiny Personal Website

This is a small Python based personal website aimed first and foremost at being a resume. I originally wrote this 7 or 8 years ago, and recently absolutely borked my newer website, resulting in me quickly resurrecting this thing in about a day and a half. This one does the same thing, but better, and faster, with less js. Feel free to take anything you need :) But keep it open source.

Getting Started

Clone this github repo into your desired webroot, and install dependencies:

pip3.10 install -r requirements.txt

You can configure everything (e.g. website title, your photo, quote, etc) by editing config.yaml and replacing all the Jesse data with your own.

For testing locally with gunicorn, without a docker rebuild, you can just do:

gunicorn app:app

For testing with docker locally, you can do:

docker build . -t <name of tag you want>

# to test locally, you can do -p 8000:8080 to forward
# port 8080 on the container to port 8000 on your local machine
docker run --rm -p 8000:8080 <name of the tag you used>

Then you can go to http://127.0.0.1:8000 in a browser to view your changes.

Deploying on an app platform

You want the following command plugged into where-ever this runs (e.g. digital ocean app platform):

gunicorn --worker-tmp-dir /dev/shm app:app

And the container port of note is port 8080.
