Hey @adorablelapisanemone,

Hosting c# will be a little bit triciker as you are on a Unix droplet, either Ubuntu, CentOS or whatever you’ve chosen. To compile, Decompile and Run C# code in Linux, follow the below-mentioned steps: Firstly, we need to install mono-complete, to run software for Mono or Microsoft. NET

As for your WordPress website, depending on your WebService - Nginx/Apache, you’ll just need to configure the configuration file and then follow the WordPress installation guide.

  1. Depending on what you are using, you can use one of these tutorials to create your configuration file:

Apache2:

Nginx:

  1. Once you’ve created the config file and pointed your Domain to your Droplet, you can follow these steps to install WordPress without any issues or complications to your other apps:

Hope that helps!
