Serving multiple websites

You can serve many websites, each of can listen to a list of domain names. E.g.

# Config example
websites:
- unique-name: "test.io" 
  fqdns: ["test.de", "test.org", "www.test.de", "www.test.org"]
- unique-name: "example.io"
  fqdns: ["example.org", "www.example.com"]

https & Letsencrypt Certificates

The domain names listed will get their certificates from letsencrypt out of the box.

Ratelimiting

There is a Ratelimit included for each website. This makes it harder to DOS one or all websites served.

Monitoring

Monitoring on GrafanaCloud (or any other grafana) is included out of the box.

GitOps your Websites

If your repository is on a frogejo or gitea repo, we included GitOps. We ask every ten minutes the repo api for new pushed content.

If there is new content we generate the new static html & serve it.

Support Hugo and Cryogene

For static html generation we support cryogen & hugo.
