A collection of ready-to-run Docker Compose stacks that attach self-hosted applications to a Tailscale network via sidecar containers. Each service gets an automatic HTTPS URL on the user's tailnet with minimal configuration.

Use cases

• expose self-hosted apps over tailscale with https
• docker compose sidecar configuration for tailscale
• securely self-host services without opening ports
• set up tailscale exit node in docker
• private urls for homelab applications
• zero-trust access to self-hosted services

When to choose

• you self-host apps in Docker and want them reachable only through your tailnet
• you want automatic HTTPS without managing certificates or a reverse proxy
• you prefer copy-paste compose files over manual Tailscale setup

When to avoid

• you need to expose services publicly to the internet rather than privately
• you don't use Docker Compose or Tailscale
• you need a single unified dashboard rather than per-service compose stacks
