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.

Caddy was my first and it’s very easy to use. I use nginx nowadays because I heard it scales better. It’s harder to use but manageable enough.

Depending on the type of website you’re hosting, you can probably just use Cloudflare pages or Netlify instead of hosting it at home with a Pi.
