How Eensy Came About

It's pretty common to use an SBC as a media center or a console game emulator. So, why not a personal or small team git server?

I had a Cubieboard 2 sitting on a shelf that I'd never even powered up and I needed a better way to organize over 100 personal repositories. I ran across a project called Gogs and I figured I'd give it a try. I was very impressed with Gogs and also how well it performed on a tiny embedded Linux ARM board. After using it for some time, I realized this could actually be useful for others.
