Vaultwarden has such a steep learning curve - eviltoast

But I want it so badly! All i need to figure out is:

reverse proxys (I stumbled through getting one caddy instance setup so far but gosh I struggle with that also, nginx proxy manager seems like my next step)

a rock solid backup/restore setup (but first I need to figure out where the vaultwarden alpine files live, then be able to get those off of the proxmox vm)

this is more of a vent, than a request for someone to spell it all out for me. But I wouldn’t be upset if anyone had the time to point me in the right direction for me.

Would it just be easier to run a keypass XC and syncthing setup?

    I have vaultwarden in docker but I don’t expose my instance externally as you really don’t need to. Put the bitwarden app on your phone sign into the instance and it will work even if your instance is borked. You can’t add items but it works.

    My suggestion, run it in docker and just back up the entire docker compose and folder structure as that includes the database as well.

    If you want to expose it use nginx proxy manager its dead simple and awesome.
