How to run Jitsi Meet (Docker) behind an Nginx Reverse Proxy

In the previous article we deployed a basic Jitsi Meet server using Docker.
This is a great way to quickly start video conferencing, but in production a Jitsi server often needs to run on the same host where other web applications are already running.
To keep everything peaceful, you should hide Jitsi behind an Nginx reverse proxy.
Nginx will take care of SSL, ports 80/443 and will proxy requests to the Jitsi containers running on internal ports.

Installation and configuration of Jitsi Meet

I will set up a full-fledged alternative to Zoom or Google Meet on your server — Jitsi Meet.
A self-hosted server will give you full control over privacy and data.
Includes the familiar features: video calls, chat, screen sharing, recording.

If needed, I will integrate Jitsi with CRM, Telegram bots, AI assistants, or SIP telephony.
This will allow you to turn the system into a powerful communication center without fees or limitations from third-party services.
