I previously used NPM, it was easy to use and simple, but more robust stuff had to be done in the config area. I ended up having to edit configs more often than not in the end, so I switched to Traefik so now I just drop some extra blocks of text directly in my compose files and it just handles it.

I use Portainer, never had any issues with it and I’m running around 40 Stacks at any given time. There’s also Yacht, which is nice, but not quite as feature rich as Portainer but it’s super easy to use in comparison.
