Internet in a Box
I thought about creating one of these in the past, but it didnโt fit my needs. I decided to start my own project, called WROLPi. It also uses a Raspbery pi as its base, but also has a Debian installer. I have RPi images available at https://wrolpi.org as well as a link to a demo (the demo needs an update, lots of new features since itโs creation).
The basic premise of WROLPi is creating your own off grid digital library: videos, web archives, PDFs, ebooks, etc. I have full text search for all of these. Offline maps as well via Open Street Map. Wi-Fi hotspot. Automatic downloads of videos (entire channels), RSS feeds, etc.

Look into Internet in a box or WROLpi as ways to serve the content. (A cookie to anyone who writes a howto on getting them both running on the same box; they have some overlap but serve different needs.)

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects โ Show and tell
https://wrolpi.org/ Been having a great time on my side-project WROLPi. Its preparedness-oriented software which allows you to create an offline library. Videos, web archives, maps, epub/pdf, etc. Really easy search, low power usage if you run on in a Raspberry Pi. Just put out the first Raspberry Pi image, which makes installation super simple. Hoping to get a Debian image soon.
Currently "videos" is pretty well flushed out. Still some work to do with web archives. Maps has been a huge headache simply because maps are so large. Got PDFs and EPUBs searchable recently.
An abbreviated list of the technologies I've used to built it: Python, ReactJS, Open Street Map, yt-dlp (videos), SingleFile (web archives).

not sure where to begin
Yes, but only via a MQTT broker. Meshtastic isn't LoRaWAN so it doesn't include that type of capability by default, but I'm not the expert on that aspect of it. If you check out the docs at meshtastic.org, and the Discourse forum link at the top of that site you might be able to find better answers to that question.

I got tired of not being able to text my friends, so I found a solution: $30 DIY LoRa personal mesh nodes with Meshtastic!
I know a lot of people have the problem of not being able to reliably get in contact with friends, and walkie talkies are basically useless unless you get somewhere quiet. I knew there had to be a way to get texting over walkie talkies or something similar, so I did some googling and came across this project called Meshtastic.

LoRa Text Messaging Networks
That is the very 1st item that https://meshtastic.org/ does:
-
are there any private voice and text chat apps for local areas over wifi or bluetooth? for android?
Meshtastic.org
- Current best mesh network app?
-
Any not so obvious alternative ways to access the internet,communication or information during shtf
Software / app: https://meshtastic.org/ Meshtastic is one of the apps you can run on your devices AND is the firmware provider for the Lora devices. So you flash the device with meshtastic, install the app on the phone, pair the phone with the lora, and start chatting.
