title: We now have user sockets!

Hi,

Me and [~cobra](https://cobra.vern.cc) finally finished/fixed user socket support on the pubnix! 

With this, you can now host any sort of webapp on the unix domain socket `~/.webserver.sock` and it will be rendered on `*-user.vern.cc`

Most webservers like NginX and Caddy have support for binding to Unix Domain Sockets too!

We have a growing amount of examples in the [wiki page for usersites](https://wiki.vern.cc/doku.php?id=guides:usersites).

I would like to thank [~pjals](https://pjals.vern.cc) and [~haxsam](https://haxsam.vern.cc) for helping out with the wiki and [~farooqkz](https://far.chickenkiller.com) for providing us a base NginX configuration for user sockets which we worked upon to do this.

Thank you for being a part of ~vern.
