Internal domain and reverse proxy (lemmy.zip)

I'm going round in circles on this one.

What I want to do is:

  • serve up my self-hosted apps with https (to local clients only - nothing over the open web)
  • address them as 'app.server.lan' or 'sever.lan/app'
  • preferably host whatever is needed in docker

I think this is achievable with a reverse proxy, some kind of DNS server and self-signed certs. I'm not a complete noob but my knowledge in this area is lacking. I've done a fair bit of research but I'm probably not using the right terminology or whatever.

Would anyone have a link to a good guide that covers this?

If you're on the same subnet, no amount of reverse proxy will help with dodgy apps. It's more appropriate to put the dodgy iot in a DMZ to control what they can do.

Putting https on these is fine, but it's not a solution to isolating bad clients.
