The Golgi apparatus is responsible for transporting, modifying, and packaging
proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations. It is
located in the cytoplasm next to the endoplasmic reticulum and near the cell
nucleus. --- Encyclopedia Britanica

This server will be an apparatus for better managing my personal projects. It
sits near the idea-generation and idea-translation components of my workflow. It
will be responsible for storing my work as a remote repository, transporting the
work between local development machines, and as a web server to improve the ease
of access of my work, both for myself and anybody curious.
Let's hope it works well.
* Setup
I'm using Hetnezer as a host. Their value for money with VPS offerings is pretty
alluring.
Additionally I've found a handy [[https://ayats.org/blog/deploy-rs-example/][blog post]] about =deploy-rs= on Hetzner, which is
remarkably convenient. They were even kind enough to link to a [[https://github.com/viperML/deploy-rs-example][repo]] which I've
shamelessly used as a starting point.
Unfortunately, Hetnezer doesn't offer a NixOS image, but they do allow you to
mount a NixOS install volume (22.05 as of writing) to your server after creating
it. After doing so, starting the VM we can get it set up simply with:
#+begin_src shell
sudo -s
nix-shell -p git
git clone https://github.com/tecosaur/golgi
cd golgi
./install.sh
# wait a bit, then create root password
shutdown -h now
#+end_src
