Currently my home server runs a few services that have a web UI. I currently access them by typing in the IP address and port number, but it’s now starting to get annoying to remember the ports.
What’s the best way to handle this?
I’ve thought of two solutions:
- I’m running a local DNS server, so I probably would be able to make CNAMEs from something like
adguard.server.localto the IP, and do a reverse proxy with something like Caddy - Maybe there’s some unified dashboard app that is a reverse proxy with some simple frontend where I can just navigate to
server.localand click a button to choose which specific service I want to see?
What are your opinions on this?
Lots of good suggestions, but no one has mentioned the simple option of browser bookmarks?
Any good browser has built in sync, so bookmarks are already shared across all of your devices.
Unfortunately I specifically opted out of any sync, because I want everything in my NixOS config also on mobile I use a different browser
There are other tools like Floccus, Nextcloud Bookmarks, etc that will handle sync across multiple browsers, so that could be an option if you wanted to do that.
