You could use `restic`[1] and a Hetzner storage box[2] (or similar cloud storage like backblaze or IDrive). I personally use a Homelab Proxmox / TrueNAS with zfs-auto-snapshot[3] and rclone[4] for ransomware protection. For Windows cli

Work through the "Get started" section of the official docs[1]. After this you could take a look at Awesome Flutter[2]. If you are more into video tutorials, this one[3] is pretty compact but not made for total beginners. If you r

It depends... .NET 6 was already capable of most things you are looking for, but there are some limitations. I personally think it is a really versatile language and if you know it, you can get the most things done somehow. I wrote a little
