 ### Use Traefik as Proxy
 
-As a container user, you probably know about Traefik. It is a easy to use reverse proxy for making containerized app and services available through the web. With the
-two provided files, [`docker-compose.traefik.yml`](docker-compose.traefik.yml) and [`docker-compose.override.traefik.yml`](docker-compose.override.traefik.yml), it is
-equally easy to deploy and use Conduit, with a little caveat. If you already took a look at the files, then you should have seen the `well-known` service, and that is
-the little caveat. Traefik is simply a proxy and loadbalancer and is not able to serve any kind of content, but for Conduit to federate, we need to either expose ports
-`443` and `8448` or serve two endpoints `.well-known/matrix/client` and `.well-known/matrix/server`.

 With the service `well-known` we use a single `nginx` container that will serve those two files.
