This website is the first step in a multi-part project for developing web based applications. In its current state it is a static website built with a responsive template, future versions will be built on a framework with server-side capabilities to allow for dynamic content. I used the "Future Imperfect" responsive template from html5up.net under the Creative Commons 3.0 Licence
This project has a deeper purpose beyond boasting about my schooling and credentials. The container this website was built off acts as a centralized point to route visitors to projects hosted under different sub domains. In addition to duties as a reverse proxy, behind the scenes it is managing ssl certificates. The certificate manager renews certificates before they expire and can issue new ones as more subdomains are needed. The limiting factor, frankly, is the host, with the containerized implementation and structure of my project redeploying on different infrastructure will merely take an afternoon.
Stay posted to this website as I will begin documenting and hosting projects that I have been talking about and designing for years. These projects will include:
Mail Server
I will host a container that will manage emails under the connorlynch.ca domain. This project will be an opportunity to learn more about mail servers and how they interact with reverse proxies. The container should also have some type of programmatic interface to allow applications to send and receive emails, such as…
Land Collection
The web app is live! You can view it at collection.connorlynch.ca or read about it here.
