If you want it beginner friendly, I can recommend nginx proxy Manager, which is basically a web ui frontend for nginx. This has its own drawbacks, but makes setup very uncomplicated.
I agree, very beginner friendly. But also, it's what most people are gonna need.
I actually started with Traefik because I didn't know any better, and I kinda wanna go back to be honest because with Traefik I was able to configure a Minecraft server, without having to expose the port. But not with NGINX Proxy Manager.l, since it only does http and shit. But I REALLY like being able to do everything via a webUI since I only have a phone to manage my server .
So, I find myself stuck between functionality and ease of use. :(
You should look into NPM Streams, they're built exactly for this purpose. It's included by default, just another type of host.
I've tried, but I wasn't able to get it working. I'll look into it again though, cuz I'd love to do it all through NPM.
Nginx Proxy Manager can do stream hosts, which are encrypted tunnels where you can put any kind of traffic not just HTTP.

At the end of the day Traefik isn't that hard, especially if you know the core concepts; if you know both and have a need for Traefik I'd just use that everywhere.
