DFV Digital Toolkit

Here I will compile the list of digital tools being used to make DreamFreely go vroom.

Obsidian: To organize it all; I'll post about the modules later.

Cloudflare: Economically priced domain registration with privacy for free, as well as CDN/Proxy ability.

NextCloud: Replacing the use of Google Drive !! This would be in combination with getting a Hetzner Storage Space, and likely a managed server for hosting websites.

Ghost / Mailgun: Love the set-up, this is all self-hosted. Ghost interfaces with Stripe and is able to manage all mailing list subscriptions; this streamlines communication multiple subscription groups.

While the templates aren't too difficult to customize either; I'm currently having a bit of difficulty with tags, though feel this can get resolved. It just takes time I'm haven't made yet.

Django / Python: This is the stack we use for API information; such as the organization and promo directories. Soon we'll be able to add a user account system as well; all self-hosted.

Stripe: Again, this is the easiest for now; I will need to set-up ACH payments sooner than later though, so as to avoid fees on large-ticket items.

Calendly: I pay for the premium version, but it integrates all of my calendars and allows for all of the various Event Types that we need.

PayHip: Here I go with the free version; provides everything we could ask for and more! Love the ability to provide coaching sessions, that are integrated with Calendly, no less!!!

Buffer: This is for LinkedIn ~ that's it, $5/month and I can schedule as many posts as I want. Which is kinda priceless.

Posteo: No more Gmail; for professional, financial, non-personal correspondence.

Gitea:
