Fonfon

Fonfon is an opinionated VPS configurator. It sets up a base Linux system, ready to serve applications, with sensible defaults so you don't have to wire everything by hand.

About the name

"Fonfon" is an homage to my cat Persephone — an orange one with a short tail. 🐱

What it does

  • SSH hardening — lock down remote access out of the box.
  • Package installation — Docker, Tailscale, and SDCI.
  • Service setup — wire up the services needed for a simple, ready system.

How it ships

Fonfon is a self-contained pex executable, so you can run it on a fresh server without installing any dependencies first.
