Infrastructure Foundation

This section establishes the shared networking, reverse proxy, and TLS infrastructure that all subsequent services depend on. Most of these components apply to both the Docker-only and K3s tracks.

What this section covers

  • Docker install and cross-build configuration
  • Networking overview: public IP, DNS setup, open ports
  • Reverse proxy: Traefik or nginx — installation and routing rules
  • TLS/SSL: Let's Encrypt via cert-manager or Cloudflare
  • Optional: Cloudflare Tunnel for zero-port-forward exposure
  • Optional: WireGuard VPN for private multi-node networking
