in web world, when the server software contains a web server, it is usually is designed to listen on some port, and then our main web server (apache/nginx/whatever) can be configured to proxy https to that port.
in gemini world, we often have gemini projects that itself listen on 1965, but i guess/hope can be configured to listen on some other port.
do we have a gemini server that can serve several capsules, and 'proxypass' requests to different ports?
(i have my snobbish reasons to also want that server to be written in a compiled to native code language/technology).
if we don't have such a server i will need to use separate machines, or perhaps, containers.

Perhaps you mean a reverse proxy? See this discussion:
Generally speaking, it is not straightforward to do reverse proxying with Gemini servers because one has to deal with client certificates (assuming the server behind the reverse proxy must have access to the original request's client certificate).
heh, that would be ironic if i start using containers because of gemini. to me containers feel like a complicated tech, and gemini like minimal tech. (:
thank you, i updated the thread there.
