Hosting Guile web applications

[Jérémy Korwin-Zmijowski]

Hello Guilers !! Hope you are doing well.

I would like to know where/how do you host your web applications written in Guile.

I would like to start hacking on the web but kind of lack of experience in these field...

Thank you in advance !

And you may install it with Docker that may save your lot of time:

For all my web applications I have them listen on a port on localhost
only.  I use nginx to listen for requests from the outside and proxy
them to the local application.

To get started you don’t need much.  For development you don’t need to
even make the application available to the internet – you can simply
start it on your development machine and connect with a browser to
localhost on the port you picked.  Publication requires the usual things
for convenience: a domain name, a public IP address associated with the
name, and a web server that listens for HTTP requests sent to that IP
address on port 443 (for HTTPS) or 80 (for plain HTTP).

Hey! Thank you both for your answers!

I will start by learning about Artanis and spread Guile all over the
web! 

Then, to make it available to the internet (I have no self host
solution right now), do you know a hosting provider with Guile pre-
installed ? Or maybe I could install Guix on some vps kind of stuff.

I found a blog gcbenison.wordpress.com where I read how one did. Was
inspiring.

Cheers

It sounds like I should continue this discussion to the guix channel
haha!

Oh, I forget to promote Guix which should be the preferred way for
installing other useful Guile packages. :-)
