docker-swag VS Express

I have a NAS on .0.181 and a swag container (on a different port than nginx) on .0.180 that points to my public facing services. For obvious reasons, I don't want my public domain to point to any other ports/addresses on my home network. Additionally, as elegant as swag is, it requires authentication and so won't work for simple local DNS. I now have one local domain for each server and an nginx instance on each that resolves to my different services on each.

OP is even linking the Github... https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-swag

I have an UnRAID server with a few services (Jellyfin, Nextcloud, etc.) running on it behind Linux Servers' SWAG reverse proxy container, which is built on Nginx and Let's Encrypt. This is pointed to a DuckDNS link, which is then pointed at my domain with a CNAME. So I can access Jellyfin, for example, at jellyfin.mydomain.com. A few weeks ago, due to seemingly unrelated issues, I got a new modem/router, an Arris SURFboard G34. For the first few weeks, everything was working as before. But now, when on my LAN, I can't get to my services at the proxied domain. It times out every time. There are no errors in SWAG's logs, nothing seems amiss in the router's web interface, and the services are available both at their IP:port address and, when not on my LAN, I can access them at the domain no problem.

Reverse proxy, probably? I use Docker SWAG, setup here, with DuckDNS and it works really well for me. There are of course many ways to reverse proxy, as I linked to earlier.

Express: A lightweight framework for building web applications.

Now, we will create API using expressjs. When we created application using --ssr flag, the Angular CLI already took care of installing expressjs for us.

First, we import express. The Express framework allows us to create routes that will respond to webhook POST requests and serve an HTML file when a GET request is made to the root of the site.

Basic Knowledge of Express

Express.js Documentation

In the JavaScript ecosystem, there are guides for enabling SAML-based enterprise single sign-on in AdonisJS, Express.js, Next.js, Remix, and React with an Express.js backend.

Starting off strong with Express.js, the cool kid on the block for building web apps. It's lightweight, flexible, and doesn't throw a tantrum when you ask it to scale. With Express, you can handle HTTP requests like a pro, play around with middleware, set up routes without breaking a sweat, and render views that make your app look stunning. Big names like Netflix and Uber are already on board, and if it's good enough for them, it's definitely worth a peek.

Now we can install both Express and Socket.io libraries:
