BitcoinShirtICYMI: I'll be writing a step by step tutorial on how to create an ecommerce store powered by open-source tools (WordPress, WooCommerce and BTCPay Server), step by step, with no steps skipped. Here's quick GIF of the illustrations I've been preparing. Intended for newbies who'd like to start earning bitcoin by participating in the ecosystem. You can also follow my crash-dummy store wootoshi.com for the progress.
Sjors Provoost@bitcoinshirt BTCPay has such a deploy script, right @NicolasDorier? I assume that script can be expanded to add all the other stuff you need for the shop. I wrote a similar script for Matreon, but for EC2 infrastructure. It's tedious, but can be done: https://medium.com/provoost-on-crypto/bitcoin-core-lightning-rails-on-aws-ad3bd45b11e0
@sjors @NicolasDorier There's a 1-click deploy on Microsoft Azure. However, Azure costs around 60$ (40$ if you optimize it). It's hard to tell someone just starting a business they'd need such an expense. It's possible on 9$ VPS, but requires technical knowledge and so far no hosting company offers templates that are needed. Source > https://twitter.com/BtcpayServer/status/1022101603602522112
It would be sick if we could bundle everything up on a 9$/month host with a single click.
Nicolas Dorier ✅@bitcoinshirt @sjors if you optimize it, it drop to 25. But you have to do manually :(
