Currently on exozyme it's very easy to host a static website, even easier than GitHub pages! Unfortunately hosting dynamic websites isn't as nice, and you can only host them on 10 ports total.

I think a solution with systemd user services and Unix sockets might work the best here. Of course, we have to be very careful about security with this.

This is the (working) code that I used to test Unix socket proxying:

import socketserver
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler
import os

class UnixSocketHttpServer(socketserver.UnixStreamServer):
    def get_request(self):
        request, client_address = super(UnixSocketHttpServer, self).get_request()
        return (request, ["local", 0])


server = UnixSocketHttpServer('/srv/http/pages/test', BaseHTTPRequestHandler)
os.chmod('/srv/http/pages/test', 666)
server.serve_forever()

This is the (working) code that I used to test Unix socket proxying: ``` import socketserver from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler import os class UnixSocketHttpServer(socketserver.UnixStreamServer): def get_request(self): request, client_address = super(UnixSocketHttpServer, self).get_request() return (request, ["local", 0]) server = UnixSocketHttpServer('/srv/http/pages/test', BaseHTTPRequestHandler) os.chmod('/srv/http/pages/test', 666) server.serve_forever() ```
