Introduction to ServerPilot, perfect for Chevereto!

Hello,

Thought I would share this smart solution I have been using for my Chevereto site. It is called ServerPilot and has been up since 2013/2014. ServerPilot is a different kind of hosting control panel, I know one of the founders of the project was Amazon's first sysadmin and the other founder is known for discovering exploits in Linux.

How it works
It's pretty simple, almost too simple.

Let's say you buy a VPS from OVH with Ubuntu 14.04. After you recieve the installation email, take your IP and password and enter it into ServerPilot and in a few minutes they install Apache, nginx, PHP-FPM and MySQL. They also set it up so you don't need to configure anything, and when your site grows your configuration is updated in the background.

When installation is complete you upload Chevereto to a folder like apps/storage/public/chevereto and that's it. You don't even need to CHMOD or install GD, CURL or any other extensions. Everything is pre-installed.

Why I recommend it
You don't need any knowledge within Linux and even if you are a Linux guru ServerPilot will probably beat your typical setup easily. They don't just install everything you need, there is also some heavy security, firewalls, automated updates and so much more, https://serverpilot.io/features

Oh, and it's free.

Looks nice to save a couple commands when building the thing but also keep things updated. I hate to manually update everything, check dependencies, permissions... so boring.

Thanks for the tip.
