-* Or follow my two application specific guides (Seafile and Wordpress for now)
+# Introduction
+Caddy v2 is the easiest reverse proxy ever! You'll be able to host multiple dockerized applications with one VM and one domain name! I learned from DoTheEvo https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker/tree/master/caddy_v2 but it wasn't as noob friendly for people new to linux or for people who have no idea what to do with their VMs.
