Traefik is a PITA.
Caddy all the way. If you build it with Docker support (or grab the prebuilt), you can use docker container names to reverse proxy using names instead of any IP addresses or ports. It's nice because if the IP updates, so does caddy. All automatically.
Here's what my caddyfile looks like;
DNS hosted by cloudflare but because caddy handles ACME certs, all the subdomains automatically get SSL.
Actually I found traefik rather easy, I just had to make the proper docker labels and config.
Unrelated, I'm going to sound like a grammar nazi here, but holy shit there are so many acronmys, how am I supposed to know every one of them without googling? Please just say "traefik is a pain in the ass". Also please don't take this as a snarky reply.
PITA = pain in the ass.
I never said it was hard. Just a real pain in the ass. Like iptables vs UFW. They're the same thing, but one is easy and a pain in the ass and the other is just easy... So I opt to make my life easier. lol
