HollowNet is an independent web hosting project built around the things that make a website work. From hosting and domains to DNS and deployment, it brings together the basic infrastructure needed to put a project online. The focus is on keeping things straightforward while leaving room to learn, experiment, and build something of your own.
HollowNet is for people with something they want to put on the web, whether they're just getting started or already have an idea taking shape.
That could mean a student working on a first project, a developer testing an idea, someone building a personal website, or a small business creating its online presence. The projects may be different, but they all need a place to begin.
The aim is simple: make hosting easier to get started with without losing sight of the technology behind it. Your project can start small and develop as your needs change.
The internet has a side most people never need to think about: servers, networks, domains, and the systems that keep websites connected. That's the side of technology that inspired HollowNet.
The name reflects that interest in what sits behind the screen. HollowNet is a place to put that interest into practice, through web hosting and the infrastructure that helps projects find their place online.
HollowNet grew out of a hands-on interest in web infrastructure and the things people can create with it. It's an ongoing independent project, shaped by practical experience, experimentation, and a desire to make hosting more straightforward.
Rather than trying to make every project fit the same mould, the idea is to offer a useful starting point for websites, development experiments, and small online ventures.
A personal website, a new idea, or a project taking its first steps online. Whatever you're building, it has to start somewhere.
