I want to host two applications that both use HTTP (ports 80 and 443) on the same server (at different particular URL's). Sounds like I need a reverse proxy - can anyone talk me through it?

  Docker container for managing Nginx proxy hosts with a simple, powerful interface

  

I always fought with nginx files so I’ve always run on nginx proxy manager. (https://nginxproxymanager.com/) It was very helpful to me when I was still learning. Halfway through 2021 I didn’t know anything about any of this, since I have switched to Linux, gotten incredibly used to YAML language that docker uses, and self hosted a bunch of stuff. It does take some dedication but learning how the stuff works is worth it. The docker compose file just needs to be copied/pasted in a file named docker-compose.yml in whatever folder you want then just make sure your terminal is on that folder when you run it. The things you need to change are usually the environment and volumes but there are other things possibly depending on the service. For NPM it shouldn’t need much altering. The ports stay the same, the environment depends on your preference and volumes just depend on where you want the configuration files. ./data will put those files into /whatever-path-to-storage/data. If you want to use your own database it’s more complicated but there are lots of guides. Personally I use Mariadb.
