I would like to utilize an Nginx Proxy Manager instance running in Docker as the primary method for routing requests to other Docker containers. But I can’t seem to get the built-in reverse proxy to ever do anything right; it always seems to just give 502s, 404s, or fail altogether.

Anyone know good resources for getting this done. I’ve tried a guide or two but one lacked depth (i.e. didn’t tell me why I was doing what I was doing, which is important to me) and another had me modifying mustache templates, which I wasn’t super keen on (although admittedly may be necessary).
