Where to Find Tech How-To Guides on A.Cavalin (acavalin.com)

Tech how-to guides on A.Cavalin live in the Blog/Notes section, and the fastest way to reach the ones you want is through the tag list rather than scrolling the post feed. The site is the personal blog of Alberto Cavalin, written in English, and its technical content clusters around Linux, terminal tools, Raspberry Pi, networking, and small self-hosted services. If you want a specific walkthrough — converting images to PDF, running a DNS server, setting up a media server — the tags are the practical entry point.

The main area for guides

The homepage exposes a Blog section alongside About and links to GitHub, LinkedIn, and email. Posts are listed by title, with the most recent items appearing first. From the visible listing, the technical posts include:

• ImageMagick | Convert images to A4 PDF — a command-line image conversion task
• Free uncensored DNS — DNS configuration
• DNSmasq Authoritative config — running DNSmasq as an authoritative resolver
• RaspberryPi server — using a Pi as a server
• Setup RetroPie gaming station — retro gaming setup on a Pi
• Setup a DLNA media server — streaming media over the local network

These sit alongside non-technical posts (recipes, stretching exercises, health notes), so the blog feed mixes topics. That is the main reason tag navigation beats browsing.

Use tags to browse related posts

Below the post list, the site publishes a top tags block. The tags most relevant to technical guides are:

Clicking a tag filters the blog to posts carrying it, which is how you move from one guide to related ones — for example, RaspberryPi leads to both the server post and the RetroPie and DLNA guides, since those are Pi projects.

How to get to a specific guide

1. Open acavalin.com.
2. Go to the Blog section (the homepage lists recent posts directly).
3. If you already know the topic, pick the matching tag from the top tags block — HowTo, Linux, RaspberryPi, Networking, and so on.
4. Open the post and follow its steps.

If you are not sure which tag applies, scan the recent post titles first; the technical ones are named after the task they perform, so the title usually tells you whether it is the guide you need.

What to expect from the guides

The posts are written as personal notes rather than polished product documentation. Titles are task-oriented ("Convert images to A4 PDF", "Setup a DLNA media server"), which suggests each post walks through a concrete setup on the author's own system. Treat them as practical walkthroughs for a similar environment — typically Linux, Debian, or Raspberry Pi — rather than as vendor-neutral references. If your distribution or hardware differs, expect to adapt commands and paths.

Limits to keep in mind

• The site is a personal blog, so coverage is uneven: some tags have many posts, others only a few.
• Content is in English, with some post titles in Italian (recipes and health topics), so a mixed-language feed is normal.
• There is no visible pricing, login, or paywall signal in the site's structure — the guides appear to be open reading, but nothing on the page confirms terms of use, so verify anything you plan to rely on against the original post.
