Dockge allows you to start/stop containers and edit your compose files from a handy ui.
Pros: if something goes wrong while you’re away, it would give you a tool to restart a service or make some changes if necessary.
Cons: exposing that much control to the outside world (even behind a log in) can potentially be catastrophic for your stack if someone gets in.
I use portainer behind tail scale. Easy management anywhere and no publicly available access.
Indeed, tailscale/wireguard/zerotier are excellent options to keep only the bare minimum (or even nothing!) exposed to the world.
