+### 🛠️ Infrastructure
+Everything you see across the `*.ejs.cam` ecosystem is proudly **self-hosted**. 
+I believe in digital sovereignty and reproducible builds.
+
+> [!TIP]
+> **Coming Soon:** I'll be publishing the **NixOS Flake** used to build this entire server. Stay tuned for the ultimate declarative config!
