Yep sounds very reasonable to me. I'd personally recommend traefik over nginx, it's a lot easier to get up and running quickly and integrates natively with Docker. Just slap some labels on your container and boom it's live. Plus, traefik can be configured to easily get letsencrypt certs for your domain(s) automatically, which is really nice.

Very true. Traefik is pretty awesome. Thanks for the input!
If I'm not mistaken NGINX Proxy Manager does all of that too, doesn't it?
You could very well be right! I'm afraid I don't know, I've not used Proxy Manager. When I switched from nginx to traefik a good few years ago it definitely didn't exist, but I've not kept up with it since.
I recommend looking into docker-compose. That way you can refer to an nginx image along with your services in one single YAML config.
I think that's reasonable.
