What is it?
Traefik Manager is a self-hosted web interface for Traefik, the reverse proxy. It lets you create and edit HTTP, TCP and UDP routers, services and middlewares from a browser, with wizards for common middleware such as authentication, rate limiting, headers and redirects, plus a raw YAML editor for anything else.
Beyond configuration, it shows live router and service health from the Traefik API, lists every certificate in acme.json with expiry details, and offers dashboards for access logs and CrowdSec decisions. Changes are backed up with timestamps before they are applied, and git push with restore is supported.
It runs as a Docker container, a Podman or native Linux service, or on Unraid and umbrelOS. A lightweight Go agent can run beside Traefik on remote hosts so one interface manages several servers. Security features include bcrypt passwords, TOTP two-factor, OIDC single sign-on, API keys and encrypted secrets.
