Thanks @FatGrizzly! Looks great!
Hi! Sorry, I was out sick at the hospital last week and missed the notifications
Will send you a sample tomorrow if that's okay.
Sure! Glad you are better!
Hi @ravi! Hi Guys!
Finally I got around to running @ravi's hext app on Darkstar. It works! I'll leave it up for a short time so you all can see it if you want:

Thanks to @ravi for the Nextjs and npm lesson! Obviously I have to look at all this some more. What's next (pun intentional) @ravi ?
Best from Sonora! 🏜️

Anybody else?
uncultured
Wthru talking about? Anything wrong with this thread?
It looks good, in fact, too good
Hi @Not_Oles ! Here's something I spun up using bootstrap (completely static for now) https://freevps.271098.xyz
P.S: Sorry for the delay and poor copy, I am very bad at copywriting 😅
Looks cool! Thank you @iamATOM !
What I like best about it is that it covers the bases but doesn't look like any other provider's website that I know about.
I feel like FreeVPS.org ought to send you and @ravi each a big check, but it's a free project and doesn't have any funding yet.
Want to provide a brief install hint?
Any suggestion on how to provide a back end so users can click to apply, check application status, get approved, and then install/ reinstall/ delete their VPS?
Thanks again!
Guys, are we going to have any more entries in the competition? Anyone else wanna try? 👏
Oh, okay. I thought we were just doing the landing page and redirect to this thread. Adding backend stuff should be very interesting
I don't know how proxmox works or the sysadmin stuff, but we should be able to implement an API between that and the website.
For the tech stack, we can use Flask/ Django/ nodejs as a backend and react for the frontend like @ravi did (hext is great btw!). Though I am not much familiar with react, I will try to catch up soon as I am already working in Angular.

The above wiki article has links to the more complete Proxmox API documentation.
It looks so cool, guys.
Nice site bro. But the VPS Specs seems to be broken on small phone screen.
Shhhh.... It's a feature 😛
If we plan on going Flask for the backend, let me know. I can help with that.
@Not_Oles @TheOnlyDK do you have any sample proxmox instance I could test the API against?
I am planning to use Django for this PoC as I need to submit a capstone project for CS50x by the end of this month, and so I can try to hit two birds with one stone
Is there a prize for the winner? 🏆🥇🏆
You want it?
Yes
Hi @iamATOM I think I remember @FatGrizzly mentioning that he had or was going to set up a test Proxmox instance. Maybe you could use that test instance? What do you think, FG?
@iamATOM I will look at some additional alternatives and PM you.
Thanks again very much! 🙂
I think it's better to use a test instance for proxmox, but we might not stick to it and might switch over to virtfusion (or alternatives) if it works better. No decision has been made just yet but it's a possibility.
I started to feel better when I looked at the [link removed] of the product on the effective use of my time
Flagged yours. Bye 🖐
Anyway congrats on your first post
It's locally hosted, I can see if i get any machines to spin one for you though
A fellow CS50 student
Good to see! David is an amazing teacher imho. I did CS50S and now will tackle CS50B and then CS50W (Python&JS).
Right?! David and Brian are 1000x better teachers than all my college professors combined
I could listen to David's voice forever. Brian is also great ;D
Hi @iamATOM! Looks like some time has passed and the other guys on the FreeVPS team decided to try Blesta and Virtfusion. Plus we got two additional servers on which Blesta and Virtfusion are being set up. So do you want to do the FreeVPS site without needing the entire backend via the Proxmox API? Everybody on the team liked your design! We have a team personal message group set up on Discord, and we could add you to it if you like Discord. Here is equally fine, of course. Sending this as a PM too. Thanks for considering! Best! Tom
