Run a shell script on system startup? (lemmy.ml)

I think there are multiple things one could do to achieve this, but am uncertain which way to go:

  • if you use systemd create a systemd service I guess? How to create systemd service that runs a (python) script on startup?
  • some files similar to .bashrc always run on system startup/boot?; use this if you are less fancy / have no systemd

Don't use a script for this

I would setup Lighttpd since it is a proper server while being pretty lightweight. It should come with the needed systemd unit so that you can just do sudo systemctl start lighttpd

Avoid writing scripts like the plague. Config files are much better and will scale better.
