## Description

Godoxy is a Docker container orchestrator and reverse proxy manager. It provides a centralized system for managing the lifecycle, power states, and resource usage of virtualized containers, while routing HTTP, TCP, and UDP traffic to backend services with automatic route discovery.

The project distinguishes itself through an OIDC access control gateway that authenticates users via external identity providers and a resource optimization system that puts idle containers to sleep and wakes them automatically when network requests arrive. It also includes an automatic SSL certificate manager that handles issuance and renewal using DNS verification.

Additional capabilities cover traffic management through load balancing and container-aware routing. The system includes security primitives for attribute-based access control and observability tools for real-time log streaming and system resource tracking.
