I currently develop and setup different software products which needs to display a map, like Google Maps or OpenStreetMaps. One very important requirement is to display the Map without an active internet connection. This quickly results in the idea to run my own GeoServer instance with local stored map data and distribute it via WMS (Web Map Service).

I use static websites based on Hugo since quite a while now. They are fast, nice to edit with the editor of my choice and can be served from any HTTP server. There are no requirements like PHP, Python or MySQL. Unfortunately I never got used to the deployment process.

I decided to make some changes to my current root server and websites. I already migrated most of my websites to be statically generated with Hugo.
