Research direction

Start by reading the README’s SYMFONY__ENV__SERVER_NAME section and the Docker and reverse-proxy usage described in the issue. Document how to set the variable for normal and reverse-proxy operation with examples, and consider the documentation complete when both access patterns and the variable’s broader effects are clearly explained.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Context
Per the Readme, SYMFONY__ENV__SERVER_NAME functions as a means to specify a user readable 2FA name. However this variable appears to have much larger implications. If malformed, CSS and other app functionality breaks down. In the event that a user is attempting to utilize a reverse proxy to access the app, the value of the variable become critical as simply targeting IP:PORT is not possible.

Request:
Short Term
Additional documentation on the functioning of this variable in the readme, preferably with an added example or two for how to properly set it for normal and behind a reverse proxy operations.

Long Term
A reworking of the app to more gracefully handle calls from different sources (eg: SYMFONY__ENV__SERVER_NAME set to foo.bar.biz renders LAN usage from IP:Port functionally useless due to formatting and other aspects breaking) so that SYMFONY__ENV__SERVER_NAME is no longer mission critical for functionality.
