Point & Click Management
Say goodbye to editing configuration files and memorizing commands. Charon gives you a beautiful web interface where you simply type your domain name, select your backend service, and click save.
Overview
Traditional reverse proxy configuration requires editing text files, understanding complex syntax, and reloading services. Charon replaces this workflow with an intuitive web interface that makes proxy management accessible to everyone.
Key Capabilities
- Form-Based Configuration: Fill in fields instead of writing syntax
- Instant Validation: Catch errors before they break your setup
- Live Preview: See configuration changes before applying
- One-Click Actions: Enable, disable, or delete hosts instantly
Why Use This
No Config Files Needed
- Never edit Caddyfile, nginx.conf, or Apache configs manually
- Changes apply immediately without service restarts
- Syntax errors become impossible—the UI validates everything
Reduced Learning Curve
- New team members are productive in minutes
- No need to memorize directives or options
- Tooltips explain each setting's purpose
Audit Trail
- See who changed what and when
- Roll back to previous configurations
- Track configuration drift over time
Features
Form-Based Host Creation
Creating a new proxy host takes seconds:
- Click Add Host
- Enter domain name (e.g.,
app.example.com) - Enter backend address (e.g.,
http://192.168.1.100:3000) - Toggle SSL certificate option
- Click Save
Bulk Operations
Manage multiple hosts efficiently:
- Bulk Enable/Disable: Select hosts and toggle status
- Bulk Delete: Remove multiple hosts at once
- Bulk Export: Download configurations for backup
- Clone Host: Duplicate configuration to new domain
Search and Filter
Find hosts quickly in large deployments:
- Search by domain name
- Filter by status (enabled, disabled, error)
- Filter by certificate status
- Sort by name, creation date, or last modified
Mobile-Friendly Design
Charon's responsive interface works on any device:
- Phone: Manage proxies from anywhere
- Tablet: Full functionality with touch-friendly controls
- Desktop: Complete dashboard with side-by-side panels
Dark Mode Interface
Reduce eye strain during late-night maintenance:
- Automatic detection of system preference
- Manual toggle in settings
- High contrast for accessibility
- Consistent styling across all components
