What is trala?

TraLa is a dashboard that connects to your Traefik reverse proxy and automatically builds a visual overview of every HTTP router it exposes. It detects service icons from a community database, groups related services by their tags, and lets you add custom links for anything not routed through Traefik. The interface switches between light and dark themes automatically, supports several languages, and runs on both x86 and ARM hardware. You can also combine several Traefik proxies into one view. Deployment is a single Docker container configured with environment variables or a YAML file; the only hard requirement is a Traefik instance with its API enabled.
