I'm new to self hosting. How do you choose which reverse proxy to use?

• zoraxy

  8 702 8.5 CSS

  General purpose (reverse) proxy and forwarding tool for networking noobs. Now written in Go!

Having said that, until Zoraxy matures a little (https://github.com/tobychui/zoraxy) NPM is the most user friendly reverse proxy.

• selfhosted-apps-docker

  150 1,427 8.8 Shell

  Guide by Example

Caddy is my choice after trying few. This guide could be helpful.

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• Traefik-v2-examples

  10 571 0.0

  Traefik v2 guide by examples

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.

• nix

  372 10,879 10.0 C++

  Nix, the purely functional package manager

  

when using docker i really like using traefik, but now i run NixOS and use nginx and NixOS modules to configure it. Works really well so far.

• Cosmos-Server

  30 2,686 9.5 JavaScript

  ☁️ The Most Secure and Easy Selfhosted Home Server. Take control of your data and privacy without sacrificing security and stability (Authentication, anti-DDOS, anti-bot)

For a beginner I would recommend NPM or Cosmos.

• nanocl

  8 602 9.8 Rust

  Distributed System that simplifies the management of containers and virtual machines.

  

I personally use nanocl i made it with the help of couple of friends.
