Which web server software do you recommend?
I want to host my website in my raspberry pi, I've read that I would need a web server software for this. Which one do you recommend? It won't be a complex website.

Apache, the OG HTTP server. Fast, well documented, battle-tested, FOSS and community-led (unlike nginx which is corporate-led). People will tell you that nginx is "faster" but never point to actual benchmarks. Both are ok.
Yeah apache is awesome. Lots of settings if u want, and every question I've ever asked and probably am yet to ask has already been answered on stack with multiple duplicates aha
Check out mod_md - this module allows getting certificates from Let's Encrypt (or any other ACME cert provider) automatically. Just set this anywhere in your config, reload apache and you're set. No more fiddling around with certbot.
MDCertificateAgreement accepted MDContactEmail [email protected] MDomain my.example.orgAlso other comments make it look like only nginx supports FastCGI (e.g. php-fpm), apache has supported talking to FastCGI since 2005:
<FilesMatch \.php$> SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php8.2-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost" </FilesMatch>Yeah I use php-fpm, I didn't know much about it the first time I installed it, I just needed it for HTTP 2.
For ssl I just install certbot and let it autorun LetsEncrypt, I haven't had any issues with any of my ssl certs, it's pretty nice.
The age old LAMP stack is pretty solid, except for me it's LAPP cuz I don't wanna use mysql.
