This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/selfhosted

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Caddy

    Fast and extensible multi-platform HTTP/1-2-3 web server with automatic HTTPS

  • I recommend using Caddy, which has automated certificate management built-in. https://caddyserver.com/

  • selfhosted-apps-docker

    Guide by Example

  • Just remember its out there, and it is rather simple and you wont be ever dealing with certificates again.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • caddy-docker-proxy

    Caddy as a reverse proxy for Docker

  • IMO yes. They're generally configured differently but with https://github.com/lucaslorentz/caddy-docker-proxy you can configure Caddy via Docker labels similarly to how you would with Traefik. Caddy is a very flexible general purpose server whereas Traefik is more of a proxy/ingress. Caddy has much simpler config overall.

  • acme.sh

    A pure Unix shell script implementing ACME client protocol

  • yeah just use Cloudflare, why would you use a nameserver that doesn't support acme.sh or certbot lol
