How do I create my own website

You're not just limited to gemini websites on this server. OpenBSD actually has a built in HTTP server called httpd(8). You can learn more about it by typing "man httpd" in your terminal.

If you'd like to create a website or a blog, you can start writing in the "pub_html" directory right in your home directory. Once you save it, it'll show up on http://twentytwo.town/~your-username.

Here are the steps:

1. Create a file called "index.html" in the "~/pub_html" directory.

2. Write some HTML in it.

3. Check out your website on http://twentytwo.town/~your-username!

If you don't like writing HTML by hand, you can use tools like lowdown(1) and sblg(1) to create it for you. You can learn more about them by typing "man lowdown" or "man sblg" or by visiting their websites:

lowdown - a Markdown translator producing HTML5, roff documents in the ms and man formats, LaTeX, gemini, OpenDocument, and terminal output

sblg - a utility for creating static blogs
