I know this is old... but may be worth investing in a ~$10/month VPS 
like Linode or DigitalOcean.  There's also a free tier with AWS EC2, but 
would suggest a server with at least 2 vCPU and 2GB ram.  There are 
other options out there as well.  For email, I would suggest an outbound 
relay like

I've been running via Docker myself, which has worked well, but can 
install directly very easily

Also worth mentioning is that you can use the Remote-SSH extension in VS 
Code, and edit on the remote server pretty transparently.  It would be 
Linux, which means a slightly harder path to local dos doors, but likely 
still worth it.

My first steps on the VPS (or any linux server) are:

- move native SSH port (reboot)
- upload my public key login (automatic if you add one via DigitalOcean)
- disable password login
- setup UFW (firewall), enable new SSH port and enable firewall

With this working, will then start to setup Services etc.
