Same treatment as the sso-manager-node companion PR: replaced the generic jekyll-theme-cayman theme with a custom layout mirroring the actual app UI -- dark fixed navbar with the theta42 logo, Bootstrap 5 + Font Awesome (same stack the app uses), content in a card, dark footer matching bottom.ejs. Keeps this repo's own favicon.svg (confirmed genuinely distinct SVG artwork from the shared theta42 logo, not a duplicate) as the browser-tab icon. - New cross-page nav (Home/Installation/Architecture/API/Docker/ Contributing/Changelog). - SEO: jekyll-seo-tag + jekyll-sitemap, per-page meta description, OG/Twitter card tags, canonical URLs, JSON-LD, sitemap.xml, robots.txt. - Mobile: Bootstrap's responsive grid + collapsible navbar; the screenshot pairs in index.md stack to full-width below 576px. Verified with a real Jekyll build (jekyll/jekyll Docker image) + Playwright: desktop and mobile (375px) screenshots, mobile nav toggle, active-link highlighting, zero console/page errors, and confirmed real SEO output + the correct (non-shared) favicon via curl against the served site.

Proxy
A reverse proxy and HTTPS termination service built on OpenResty/nginx, with a management API and web GUI. It puts any of your apps behind single sign-on (OIDC) and can also look users up directly in LDAP — so the same people who log in to your SSO are the people allowed to reach your proxied apps.
Automatic HTTPS from Let's Encrypt (including wildcards), routing by hostname, and per-host access control tied to your identity provider — managed from a web UI or a REST API, with no downtime on config changes.
Part of the theta42 self-hosted identity stack, alongside SSO Manager and theta-env (the two composed with one command).
Screenshots
Basic auth and SSO are mutually exclusive per host, with per-user password management once basic auth is enabled:

Why this over the alternatives
Nginx Proxy Manager, Traefik, and Caddy are all good reverse proxies with auto-HTTPS. This one is built around identity: it is both an OIDC client of an SSO provider (for browser login) and a direct LDAP client (for user lookups and per-host access control), so access decisions come from your real user directory, not a static allow-list or a separate auth proxy bolted on top. The trade-off is that it expects an OIDC/LDAP identity source to point at — it is not a standalone auth server. Pair it with SSO Manager (bundled OpenLDAP + OIDC) for a self-hosted SSO + proxy stack, or point it at any OIDC provider + LDAP directory you already run.
Features
- Automated HTTPS via Let's Encrypt — HTTP-01 and DNS-01 (wildcard) challenges
- Multiple DNS providers (Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, PorkBun, DuckDNS — free)
- Dynamic host routing with wildcard domain matching (
*,**) - OIDC login and direct LDAP lookups, independently of each other
- Per-host basic auth as an alternative to SSO (mutually exclusive, so it's never ambiguous which one gated a request)
- Role-based access control — global admins, local groups, and per-domain permissions (viewer/manager)
- Self-service API tokens for scripting/CI without a browser session
- Web UI and a full REST API
Get it
git clone https://github.com/theta42/proxy.git
cd proxy && docker compose up -d --build
That's the standalone quick start. For the full set of install options (Docker, bare-metal, or as part of the combined SSO + proxy stack), configuration reference, and API docs, see the GitHub repository.
