== What is an Application ==

Line 10:

* Keep CPU time '''Down'''

* Avoid running anything that would use a '''Silly''' amount of system/natural resources

* Your application may be better suited for being run as a part of ~~'''The'''~~ [[~~Incredible~~ Pronounmail Suite of ~~Interesting Applications~~]].

* Your application may be better suited for being run as a part of [[The Pronounmail Interesting Suite of Software]].

* Please have the source code for your application available somewhere on the server under a '''Reasonable''' license (the AGPL is always a good choice)

All webserver configuration must currently pass through leah. Please ask her nicely if you need things to be ~~changéd~~.

The cops don't want you to know this, but you can make a static website appear dynamic by just rebuilding it every few minutes. You can use a systemd timer to do this automatically ([[please]] don't rebuild it too often or i'll [[killing|kill]] you 💔).
