But I want it so badly! All i need to figure out is:
reverse proxys (I stumbled through getting one caddy instance setup so far but gosh I struggle with that also, nginx proxy manager seems like my next step)
a rock solid backup/restore setup (but first I need to figure out where the vaultwarden alpine files live, then be able to get those off of the proxmox vm)
this is more of a vent, than a request for someone to spell it all out for me. But I wouldn’t be upset if anyone had the time to point me in the right direction for me.
Would it just be easier to run a keypass XC and syncthing setup?
Vaultwarden itself is actually one of the easiest docker apps to deploy…if you already have the foundation of your home lab setup correctly.
The foundation has a steep learning curve.
Domain name, dynamic DNS update, port forwarding, reverse proxy. Not easy to get all this working perfectly but once it does you can use the same foundation to install any app. If you already had the foundation working, additional apps take only a few minutes.
Want ebooks? Calibre takes 10 mins. Want link archiving? Linkwarden takes 10 mins
And on and on
The foundation of your server makes a huge difference. Well worth getting it right at the start and then building on it.
I use this setup: https://youtu.be/liV3c9m_OX8
Local only websites that use https (Vaultwarden) and then external websites that also use https (jellyfin).
As a non-technical person at the bottom of the learning curve, I can vouch for its steepness.
