At the time of writing a lot of this might be more recent, but for quite some time codepoints.net had not been updated with code point information newer Unicode releases.
Basically it was stuck at Unicode version 8.0 with some 120k glyphs. At the time of writing Unicode version 15.0 is in beta and the difference between 15.0 and 8.0 is some 24k glyphs.
So I had a quick twitter chat with the author and jotted down the links in this blog post so I won’t forget them.
There I learned it was open source (I think it is the only Unicode codepoint site that is).

One of my sites is about a lot of static content which is mostly generated too. So I want to put some research into pre-compressing that content before serving it.
Here are some links that might put me in the right direction:
If you really want to see all the complete config settings, there is no existing tool for that. This Stack Overflow page answered this question pretty well: You can use apachectl -S to see the settings of Virtual Host, or apachectl -M to see the loaded modules, but to see all settings, there is no such tool, you will have to go through all the files , starting from familiar yourself with the general structure of the httpd config files.
… script …
The usage is simple: Run it as python CombineApacheConfig.py . Since there is no additional parameters given, it will retrieve the default Ubuntu apache config file from /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and generate the result complete config file in /tmp/apache2.combined.conf. If your config file is in different location, then give the input file and output file location.
Note: Apache server-info page http://127.0.0.1/server-info also provide similar information, but not in the config file format. It is in human readable format. The page works only when it is open from the same computer.

Although using .htaccess files requires Apache to allow AllowOverride All which you might not want to, so here are a few other options and links you might want to check out:
I had this strange break down of Apache 2 after updating to the most recent openSuSE Tumbleweed in the /var/log/apache2/error_log:
[Wed Jun 28 10:04:19.955991 2017] [ssl:info] [pid 27786] AH01887: Init: Initializing (virtual) servers for SSL

This didn’t give any results for processes having port 443 open:
Well, I need to do that propertly another time as the first thing I bumped into was this:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagecreatefrompng() in /srv/www/vhosts/pluimers.com-ssl/stackoverflow/imageFlair/imageFlair.php on line 42
For now I’ve fixed the first by installing php5-gd (although an SO answer suggests php-gd, openSuSE uses the php-version number for installing modules).
First of all, apparently I didn’t have all the required apache modules installed. The not-so-easy part is that apache uses two different aliases for modules: the ones listed by apache2ctl -M 2>&1 | sort are in a different format than the ones you mention in .htaccess and .conf files. Oh and of course the -M (nor the -t -D DUMP_MODULES) aren’t listed ore hinted in the apachectl documentation: that would be too easy. They are listed in the httpd2 documentation.
The .htaccess file needs mod_rewrite and mod_expires, but apache2ctl names them rewrite_module and expires_module.
Enabling these was easy, but you have to remember that a2enmod strips the prefix/suffix of the module name (I already had expires_module (shared) installed so this only shows how to enable mod_rewrite):
a2enmod rewrite
rcapache2 stop
rcapache2 start
rcapache2 status
NB: mod_rewrite wasn’t enable by default and before enabling it, read about the risks of mod_rewrite.

Most of my web-stuff is on Apache. Which works fine, has TLS/SSL enabled, etc.
But I wanted to do server-side JavaScript. Which somehow is a forrest without trees, or a nightmare to get started, especially on OpenSuSE.
First of all, virtually all examples explain how to run node as a script. But none explain where to save it, how to run it as a service (and restart when it crashes: it will crash) or how to run multiple sites under it. And the scripts seems to listen to a TCP port by themselves so they operate as a full server by themselves. Nice for a fully fledged portal, but not for some one-offs.
Some links below hopefully will get me re-started later on, but for now, I’ve given up: the out-of-the-box experience is totally non-intuitive.
Maybe what I really want is something else: I want JavaScript stuff that normally renders a page in the browser through the dom to run server side so I can run XMLHttpRequest to various places without bumping into CORS stuff but still render a page DOM.
If you know a better way to do what I want (serving small mostly single-page scripts written in an easy to debug/trace language) let me know.
So basically work around this:
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://myApiUrl/login. No'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested
resource.Origin'null'is therefore not allowed access.
