What are you working on? Any new ideas which you're thinking about?

For fun, I am building a little tool called 'domain-manager'. Basically just a binary that automates configuring a Linux host to run a bunch of WordPress/Laravel/PHP sites.

It creates all the necessary boilerplate to generate PHP Docker containers, creates all of the MySQL users, and sets up all of the directory structures to get a new website up and running. It even helps set up SFTP users and gets letsencrypt certificates set up with certbot.

It's still very early days, but I appreciate that what used to be a bunch of commands that I would run by hand and slightly change every few months is now pretty much just all self contained. Should mean the next migration to a different server is easier.

Created in frustration because I was too cheap to pay the $50/month for a cPanel license.
