Using Ansible to setup a WireGuard VPN server on Debian 9

Fredrik Jonsson – 24 January, 2019

I have been watching the WireGuard project with interest for a couple of years. I like how WireGuard is constructed. A small code base that focus on the core functionality. The use of standard Linux networking tools and simple public/private keys.

Cover my house with UniFi Wi-Fi

Fredrik Jonsson – 12 October, 2018

Apples AirPort have given my household good and stable Wi-Fi for many years. They cost a bit more but just work and are easy to set up, a very Apple product. Apple discontinued its AirPort products this year, and last updated them in 2013.

Go multilingual with Hugo

Fredrik Jonsson – 5 April, 2018

I have made my small company site multilingual, in Swedish and in English. It’s a static site built with Hugo and my own Zen theme for Hugo. Hugo has good multilingual support. What took the most time was building a language selector that works both when content is translated and when it is not.
