Traefik-v2-examples VS Cosmos-Server

Theres also traefik guide but the contrast in complexity is apparent right away.

Traefik that I tried first is very powerful but there are few abstraction layers and bit of complexity that I felt like I had to re-learn it every time I was about to do a change. But it is very powerful in dynamic enviroments where one spins often enough more new containers.

My first reverse proxy was traefik, but it was just too complex, with too many abstraction layers for my use. I needed to re-learn it every time I went to make changes.

I tried traefik. As I was learning it, which was like a week or two of effort, I actually wrote a guide that somehow got 500 stars on github...

Theres also traefik, that people recommend, but IMO for home stuff it is too complex with too many abstractions. Caddy is literally just giving it port 80 and 443 and a single clean config file.

Traefik is actuall business aimed and powerful and probably worth learning if you would need to manage lot of containers and change stuff dynamically on the fly. But it is just so damn complicated and you kinda need to re-learn it every time you return to it. Here is guide for that one..

You can try look here

Here is a decent guide that gets you going.

Have you considered going caddy instead of traefik?

How to reverse proxy with traefik

That's basically just a docker-compose.

In my quest to streamline operations, I stumbled upon a project on GitHub named Cosmos. With around 800 stars, it's not as well-known as the tools I'm using, but it's caught my eye because it promises to consolidate many of my current tools into one.

From readme.md:

If you're searching a good reverse proxy try https://github.com/azukaar/Cosmos-Server it's the best one if tried yet and it can do more than that. It also hast Dashboards and am integrated docker manager and repositories.

A spotlight on Cosmos, a self-hosted platform for managing applications and services

If you want something like that, then CasaOS is pretty great and i can recommend it, especially for a beginner. There is also Cosmos and Tipi. Yunuhost too but a bit different approach. Oh and Umbrel is a thing...
