Hi everybody.

How should I setup reverse proxy for my services? I've got things like jellyfin, immich a bitwarden running on my Debian server in docker. So should i install something like nginx for each of these also in docker? Or should I install it from repository and make configs for each of these docker services?

Btw I have no idea how to use something like nginx or caddy but i would still like to learn.

Also can you use nginx for multiple services on the same port like(443)?

That question is a little bit out of the scope of a forum like this. A question like that would better be answered by the nginx documentation. Sometimes the project documentation might have a blurb about nginx configuration specific for that project. For example, Immich.

For the most part, you only have to reference the nginx documentation. I've never looked at the Immich config above until now, and my Immich server works great.

I've had a reverse proxy for years, but the config files are very foreign to me because I use Nginx-Proxy-Manager. NPM makes nginx usable for dummies like me, at the expense of gaining a deeper understanding of how it works. I'm ok with that, but you might feel differently.
