Zoraxy

Zoraxy is a lightweight reverse proxy designed for self-hosters who want a simple web UI to publish multiple services behind one HTTP(S) entrypoint. It focuses on easy setup, practical routing features, and built-in utilities commonly needed in homelabs and small deployments.

Key Features

• Web-based admin UI to manage proxy hosts and routing rules
• Reverse proxy for HTTP/HTTPS services with host- and path-based routing
• TLS/HTTPS support (certificate management options depend on deployment)
• Access controls and request filtering features intended to reduce unwanted traffic
• Built-in traffic/utility tools (e.g., diagnostics and convenience features surfaced in the UI)
• Designed to be lightweight and easy to run on modest hardware

Use Cases

• Expose multiple self-hosted apps (media, dashboards, admin panels) under different subdomains
• Front internal services with HTTPS and centralized routing rules
• Provide a simple GUI-managed edge gateway for a homelab or small VPS

Limitations and Considerations

• Feature depth and ecosystem are smaller than larger proxy stacks (e.g., NGINX/Traefik) and may not cover advanced enterprise needs.

Zoraxy fits users who want a straightforward reverse proxy with a GUI and sensible defaults rather than a highly extensible edge platform. It is particularly suitable for homelabs and small deployments where simplicity and low overhead are priorities.
