YunoHost
YunoHost is a Debian GNU/Linux based distribution packaged with free software that automates the installation of a personal web server.

Currently supported apps include an email server with webmail interface, a WordPress website, an instant messaging server, a news aggregator, a file sharing server, and a seedbox, among others. The name YunoHost is a play on words on the internet meme "Y U NO".
