Charon

Your server, your rules—without the headaches.

Manage reverse proxies with a clean web interface.
No config files. No cryptic syntax. No networking degree required.

🚀 Why Charon?

You want your apps online.

You don’t want to edit config files or memorize reverse proxy syntax.

Charon gives you:

• ✅ Automatic HTTPS certificates
• ✅ Clean domain routing
• ✅ Built-in security protection
• ✅ One-click Docker app discovery
• ✅ Live updates without restarts
• ✅ Zero external dependencies

If you can use a website, you can run Charon.

🛡 Built-In Security

Charon includes security features that normally require multiple tools:

• Web Application Firewall (WAF)
• CrowdSec intrusion detection
• Access Control Lists (ACLs)
• Rate limiting
• Emergency recovery tools

Secure by default. No extra containers required.

--- ## ✨ Top 10 Features

🎯 Point & Click Management

No config files. No terminal commands. Just click, type your domain name, and you're live. If you can use a website, you can run Charon.

🔐 Automatic HTTPS Certificates

Free SSL certificates that request, install, and renew themselves. Your sites get the green padlock without you lifting a finger.

🌐 DNS Challenge for Wildcard Certificates

Secure all your subdomains with a single *.example.com certificate. Supports 15+ DNS providers including Cloudflare, Route53, DigitalOcean, and Google Cloud DNS. Credentials are encrypted and automatically rotated.

🛡️ Enterprise-Grade Security Built In

Web Application Firewall, rate limiting, geographic blocking, access control lists, and intrusion detection via CrowdSec. Protection that "just works."

🔐 Supply Chain Security

Verifiable builds with ***graphic signatures, SLSA provenance attestation, and comprehensive SBOMs. Verify what you run with transparent, tamper-proof evidence.

🌐 Smart Proxy Headers

Automatically adds standard headers (X-Real-IP, X-Forwarded-Proto, etc.) so your backend applications see real client IPs, enforce HTTPS correctly, and log accurately—with full backward compatibility for existing hosts.

🐳 Instant Docker Discovery

Already running apps in Docker? Charon finds them automatically and offers one-click proxy setup. No manual configuration required.

📊 Real-Time Monitoring & Logs

See exactly what's happening with live request logs, uptime monitoring, and instant notifications when something goes wrong.
