Docker Socket Proxy
A self-hosted Networking & VPN app you can run on your own server.
Docker Socket Proxy gives you a self-hosted networking application: one you deploy yourself, on a home server, NAS or VPS. It is a practical pick for homelab users and teams who prefer owning their tools over renting them.
Its public repository on GitHub currently shows 2.8K stars, a useful signal of community interest. Repository activity was last recorded on Jul 27, 2026, and the project is classed as actively maintained in our snapshot.
Before you switch
Networking changes can lock you out of your own server, so keep a fallback access path while you configure. Read the project's reverse-proxy and certificate notes carefully, open only the ports required, and test from outside your home network before relying on it.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, Docker Socket Proxy is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
