Hey all. Ive been hosting some software for a while now, some private, some public stuff.
Recently ive gotten myself a domain name, and i’m trying to come up with a good way to have access to both the public AND the private on the same URL. Simpleton that i am i thought about putting the public in an inline frame with a banner with links at the top, but im sure there are better ways.
Any ideas how to do this from this community?
Edit : After all these comments, i stumbled upon Nginx. After some startup problems, i now have Nginx running in a docker on the same remote server. Plenty of questions left but most notably (and hereby clarified) : Is there something like a management page-thingy i can install that lets me manage the content of the various containers? Think sonarr, a torrent client, nginx, etc.
Everyone is suggesting cloud flare tunnels which can be easy to use but locks you into a proprietary service. If you want to self host everything, you can set it up yourself with a reverse proxy like traefik

You will end up with service.local.domain.com and service.domain.com for local only apps and internet facing apps, all using HTTPS.
If you are familiar with traefik, watch a tutorial on that first, then come back and watch the above video.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/liV3c9m_OX8
