Gregory's Server@drazraeltod I hear what you're saying, but what was being described in the initial posts seems like more than just reinventing what has already been written once already. Your last line seems closer to the mark: "You don't become a hero by solving how to butter bread."
@tokyo_0 nah, the initial post is just that (actually it's LESS than reinventing anything)
they buttered bread - even the same way most people do
they took the most mainstream of parts (Apache, PHP, Linux, HTML, CSS) and left out moving parts that weren't needed for their use case.
the whole static site idea is pretty similar to that (but those mostly use nginx or so AND have no need for ebook processing)
the only thing they did is going half way to least complexity. And that's totally fine.
