Off-grid web server for the developing world

In plain words

This is a web server designed to operate without grid electricity, targeting users in developing regions with limited infrastructure. It enables offline web hosting and content distribution in areas where traditional internet connectivity is unreliable or unavailable. The project focuses on making web technology accessible to communities without dependable power sources, allowing them to host and share information locally.
