+## Reverse Proxy Integration with Caddy
+
+If you deploy MiauInv behind a global Caddy server, Caddy must act as an HTTPS reverse proxy. Since the MiauInv binary enforces native TLS transport, Caddy needs to be configured to establish a secure backend connection and bypass verification for self-signed backend certificates.
+
+### 1. Docker Compose Network Configuration
+Ensure your MiauInv container shares an external network with your Caddy container (e.g., a network named `proxy`). The container does not need to expose public ports since Caddy communicates with it internally over port `8080`.
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  miauinv:
+    image: git.miaurizius.de/miaurizius/miauinv:latest
+    container_name: MiauInv
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    networks:
+      - proxy
+    environment:
+      - JWT_SECRET=SECURE_RANDOM_STRING
+    volumes:
+      - ./appdata:/appdata
+
+networks:
+  proxy:
+    external: true
+```
+
+### 2. Caddyfile Configuration
+
+Add the following block to your server's `Caddyfile`. The `https://` prefix forces Caddy to use TLS for the backend connection, and `tls_insecure_skip_verify` allows the proxy to accept the internal self-signed certificate generated during the prerequisites step.
+
+```caddy
+inv.yourdomain.com {
+        encode zstd gzip
+
+        reverse_proxy https://miauinv:8080 {
+                transport http {
+                        tls_insecure_skip_verify
+                }
+        }
+
+        header {
+                X-Content-Type-Options nosniff
+                Referrer-Policy strict-origin-when-cross-origin
+                Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains"
+        }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Apply Configuration
+
+Reload your Caddy instance to apply the reverse proxy routing rules:
+
+```bash
+docker compose exec -w /etc/caddy caddy caddy reload
+```
