Is there a raspberry pi server?

1. Andrew Singleton (singletona082 (a) gmail.com)

Long and short is I have a pi zero w I am sorta half using as a personal
media server and a wifi access point and bridge to hit a dead spot on one
end of the house.

If this exists apologies for cluttering the list and I would like to be
pointed at the documentation.

If not? I figure it would be good to have a pi server since, especially
paired with an access point, it can be good for serving content locally. If
nothing else it allows potential uses a space to play with their content
before diving I with a dedicated web server and domain.

Agate has prebuilt binaries for ARM which should run on a RPi zero.

The binaries can be found on the releases page 
<https://github.com/mbrubeck/agate/releases/tag/v3.0.3>. Or if you don't 
want to use GitHub, I have mirrored them 
<https://qwertqwefsday.eu/agate/v3.0.3/> <gemini://qwertqwefsday.eu/agate-bins/>.

Most servers should work perfectly fine on a Raspberry Pi, you'd just
need to compile it for ARM (compiling on the Pi itself would be the best
way to make sure it'll work).  Gemini is lightweight enough that pretty
much any current server implementation should work fine, you can take
your pick:

I use gmid: https://git.omarpolo.com/gmid/about/

gmnisrv runs on RPi and requires minimal configuration. I actually use it 
to serve my capsule (gemini://jsreed5.org) from a Raspberry Pi.

I run my capsule (gemini://vectorprime.deszaras.xyz) from a Raspberry Pi 4 
using Doppio (my own server software): https://github.com/bhavanki/doppio 
. Since it’s Java, as long as you can run a JVM, it will likely work.

Beyond that, though, I expect that most Gemini server implementations that 
run on Linux will work on a RPi, since none of them should require a lot 
of horsepower. Maybe try a few and see which one you like best!
