So many choices…

The original Gramps software cannot be easily run on a remote server.  Recently, however, a new project has emerged: Gramps Web.  Gramps Web is in active development but it may be usable for what you want to do.

Apart from Gramps Web, there are at least 3 ways to publish your Gramps family tree on the internet:

1) Narrated Web Site

2) Dynamic Web Report

3) Betty

Betty - static site generator for Gramps XML and GEDCOM <https://gramps.discourse.group/t/web-connected-versus-stand-alone-isolated-genealogy-application/889/8>


Huh, there is a wiki page just for the question you asked:
