Minimum for a node is 2 GB ram, e.g. an older Raspberry Pi.
However, a newer Raspberry Pi with at least 4 GB ram and 20 GB for OS + chain is recommended for a good experience. If you want an archive node and want to be future proof, perhaps increase the SSD size since they are dirt cheap anyway.
If you want to be amazingly fast, go for Raspberry Pi 5 since they have M2 SSD support.

I did a test and got this error at the end:
root@test:~/grin-explorer# ./target/release/grin-explorer
[ INFO ] Starting up Explorer.
[ INFO ] Starting up Rocket engine.
🚀 Rocket has launched from http://127.0.0.1:8000

And did you have to build reverse proxy in ngix or apache to let this web service be public?
Did you install grin node? Explorer can’t find "~/.grin/main/chain_data“ directory.
It’s not strictly necessary to use nginx, you can just change the following in Rocket.toml file:
address = “0.0.0.0”
But in production nginx is preferred.
You can DM in telegram @aglkm
