Having codes on github has always been the best way to control codes but not able to create more private repository is becoming a challenge. This @home experiment may work out with Gitea running on docker with Ubuntu.
So I manage to get Gitea running on an Ubuntu server with docker enabled (well docker@home) and tested. It seem to be working well but figured I have a lower version running so need to figure out how I can upgrade to the latest (at least the one with Actions).
