None of that is needed with cloudflare zero trust + tunneling. You simply install an agent on the machine and configure internal IP:port you want to access the outside in the cloudflare portal, pointing to a domain you own. You can even allow passwords to access internal IPs directly if you want.
Of course you can use a reverse proxy to expose your apps to the internet.
Here's another similar solution that you can self host in a cheap cloud VM:

That also requires you to manage updates and security on that device... If you want less work not more zero trust cloudflare is a great free solution. I used to use nginx proxy manager which is free as a reverse proxy but again one less machine to worry about. I literally just migrated days ago and I couldn't be happier.
