Hello everyone, and particularly the WeWeb tech team 🙂

Have you ever considered wrapping your weweb server and auth repositories as Yunohost apps ?

# About Yunohost

In case you don’t know it, Yunohost is an **awesome** linux distrib that allows extremely easy deployment and updates of open source apps.

Basically, it’s a common framework for an open source set of deployment scripts, handling install / uninstall / update of apps with several services to manage (a DB, several services, whatever is needed for the app to correctly work)

It’s made by a mostly french community and their work is very nice : [YunoHost: garden your own piece of the Internet!](https://yunohost.org/#/index_en)

# Why Yunohost and WeWeb ?

Yunohost makes it very easy for company / structures that don’t have a tech team or good knowledge of infrastructure / linux server management to self host stuff.

At the moment I would really love to self host our weweb app, and that would be a huge added value for our NGO structure and community which values data privacy (a lot), but I’m a bit afraid of the difficulty and future maintenance.  
For the context we don’t have a tech team apart myself, just volunteers, and I’m just in my structure for short term contract 😅

Having an open source “playbook” to install weweb server and needed services would be :

- For us a very good addition to stick a bit more to the WeWeb product
- I guess for all the freelance prototypers I’ve seen on this forum a very practical way to host a first version for their clients ! Even with no or low server management knowledge

I hope we’ll have the occasion to discuss that, I really dream of a world where any NGO could easily host a WeWeb / Supabase combo to create its own secure and self hosted app 🥹

What a teasing 🙃

Can’t wait to hear about that !  
(also, I’d be more than happy to discuss the topic if some user feedback is needed !)
