Nginx app curation

With all the other apps curated so far it would be awesome to see nginx curated for DNS and HTTPS resolving.  It already exists in truenas scale as Nginx Proxy Manager.  This would allow hex os users to access their apps externally without VPN hosting, to resolve DNS requests and utilize https.

I imagine this is being looked at but what sets this above tailscale.  Tailscale already has scripts for someone to review to be curated so how does this app distinguish itself?  Options would be wonderful.  Especially if the are free to use!

So I use a host vpn on my firewall/router to remotely access my server (I have never used tailscale but I think it does the same thing, right?).   With nginx+DNS registar+SSL cert you would not need to host a vpn you could could acess it like other website.  The use case for example is for non-tech savi remote family members who do not understand vpns or networking, they wouldn't have to fiddle with ovpn or wg files, or more accurately you wouldnt need to have to try to walk them through it over the phone.  Your server services would work like any other website/app they are used to.  Secondly there are some apps that I've found that https is a requirement.
