This page is a growing list of guides on how to do permacomputing-related things, which may or may not be relevant depending on your context.

There is a quote about solarpunks that there are two main kinds of solarpunks: "Junkers", who scrap things together from trash, and "Reformists" who try to make new systems that work well in the first place. This is a bit of a reduction, but a similar framework could also apply to permacomputing — making mainstream tools work more efficiently, building things out of trash, or designing entirely new systems could all be moving in the direction of permacomputing.
