# Traefik Reverse Proxy

##### Traefik is a reverse proxy that:

Routes requests from your domain to the right container.  
Terminates SSL using \*\*Let’s Encrypt\*\*.  
Handles automatic certificate renewals.

This means you don’t have to touch nginx config files or manually manage certs.

##### Traefik docker-compose.yml

Create a folder:

```
mkdir -p ~/traefik
cd ~/traefik
```
