I tried caddy for my home setup. Replacing nginx and traefik. I am wondering if I should ditch them in production too. I am hesitant, cause I don't see caddy as "business" software: nginx has a learning curve and configuration to master, where caddy just does the job, sane defaults and not much to "work". It just doesn't feel like work using caddy...

Large companies like Stripe use Caddy. It's definitely not a toy. It is, and has been production ready for many years.
I guess it's just me than; all the stuff I have learned: setting the right labels for traefik, debugging it for hours. Now it's just:

```

caddy: example.com

caddy.reverse_proxy: {{ upstream 8080 }}

```

Yep! The CDP plugin https://github.com/lucaslorentz/caddy-docker-proxy makes configuration per docker service pretty easy!
