+## What is Pterodactyl?
+
+[Pterodactyl](https://pterodactyl.io/) is a free, open-source game server management panel built with PHP,
+React, and Go. Designed with security in mind, Pterodactyl runs all game servers
+in isolated Docker containers while exposing a beautiful and intuitive UI to end
+users.
+
+## pterodactyl & ssl
+
+ssl with pterodactyl is really annoying if you are using it behind a reverse
+proxy (nginx) - might be easier to run this on its own server so you can just
+use the default port 80 for web. reverse proxy is designed for normal web
+traffic, not game servers.
+
+If you are annoying like me and wanna put things on a single server and save
+money... here is what you can do.
