    I second NPM. As you mentioned it’s been very easy to use, but I also haven’t been trying to do anything complicated.

    I’ve never used load balancing so perhaps Caddy or Traefik is easier to use than NPM in that regard, but I wouldn’t know.

    • Yes NPM is for basic reverse proxying, so one URL to one server. If you wanted to scale and load balance across multiple servers you’d need regular nginx with a text config file since you literally can’t configure a second or third server.

      And I’d still find that easier than Traefik, but maybe that’s just because I’ve been using Apache2 and nginx for like a decade at this point so it’s what I know.
