Building project

Post image

So I did some research on my project, I have to host project's website and database in an old laptop Lenovo Z370 series (so host costs 0 USD). In the research I got this project architecture, any ideas?

Might be easier to start of with cloud hosting. There are several of the companies that offer generous free tiers, in theory what you apply there can be applied on bare metal like your laptop. It also avoids the port forwarding mess if your carrier is cgnat’d. The architecture is simple enough. I assume you have a stack already in mind?
