Blackcandy: Self hosted music streaming server
nginx-proxy becomes almost a must have if you have multiple services and prefer remembering domain names instead of port numbers https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy

Working on Multiple Web Projects with Docker Compose and Traefik
If Traefik is not your thing Im happily using https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy and sslip.io for local docker compose development.
And then even plain nginx to proxy to non docker services...
(And ipv6 for really short urls. E.g. `example.com.--1.sslip.io` etc)

Build a Typescript Tool to modify npm automatically when using docker-containers
I wanted to share with you an exciting new tool that simplifies the process of interacting with the NGINX Proxy Manager API. It's a TypeScript tool that generates API requests based on environment variables within a Docker container. This tool is heavy influenced by the https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy but it works with npm.

Docker Services question
I use an automatically configuring reverse proxy - there's several to choose from, but the nginx-docker image is really nice, and comes with another image to do automatic SSL with certbot (if you wanted to host things externally).

Raspberry Pi 3b+ enough for proxy server
Docker runs on the 3B+ so you could use this [Github] or the one I have deployed here [NGINX Proxy Manager site] amongst others.

Docker compose or kubernetes for single node cluster?
docker compose + wildcard dns + reverse proxy that covers all widecard subdomains + https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy (not to be confused with nginx itself) then setup a container for each app and set a subdomain for it, you can add ssl if you have a public domain or use self signed certs (but you need to distribute it to all machines and devices)

Using https with docker - managing TLS certificates from Lets Encrypt?
We use the nginx-proxy docker image. Auto-configuring reverse proxy with support for certbot. Never been easier - just put your domain and certbot details in your container env, and it does the rest.

Guide: Setting up Local DNS WITH PORTS
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.

Reverse Proxied services not accessible on LAN
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.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing nginx-proxy and docker-swag you can also consider the following projects:
Nginx Proxy Manager - Docker container for managing Nginx proxy hosts with a simple, powerful interface
authentik - The authentication glue you need.
oauth2-proxy - A reverse proxy that provides authentication with Google, Azure, OpenID Connect and many more identity providers.
Laradock - Full PHP development environment for Docker.
Caddy - Fast and extensible multi-platform HTTP/1-2-3 web server with automatic HTTPS
