I did the same thing. After some bad downtime from Traefik introducing breaking changes in a point release, I decided to write my own.

My reverse proxy offered a service mesh, live config reloads, managed TLS certs, and automatically rerouted traffic around down services. The whole thing was a few hundred LOC anyone could understand in its entirety. It ran in production for years unchanged and never caused an outage.
