i think using node and express.js is very approachable in serving your web content. expressjs.com
following the hello world example on their site will help clarify how everything clicks together.
i know u said this is a project for learning, but static site hosting is pretty cheap and may provide less headaches as you’re learning. sites like porkbun offer it for $3 USD and i think even github has a free way tp host a static site. idk what running a computer at home would cost monthly in electricity.

Thanks! I’ll look into this hello world example. And as for the electricity bill… I’m planning on having this website running locally for a short while, as this is mostly for learning purposes. Perhaps in the future I’ll try other hosting options, idk.
But for the time being, I like to think that I’ll be able to host whatever I want whenever I want you know? It’s kind of liberating.

very true. there really something liberating about about self hosting.
