Hello @Nerivec !

As suggested in Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt#28639 (comment) I tested the standalone version of frontend for 2 Z2M instances running on VMs.
I installed Windfront add-on in HA as it was the simpler/quicker install for me at the moment.
I haven't tested it intensively or exhaustively but went through different menus, tested some filters to have a look on each Z2M devices separately. It was OK.

I also tested external access to HA+Windfront and saw that everything goes through the proxy as expected (no local accesses through internal IPs and websockets were also connected through the proxy). FYI, I use haproxy as a frontend proxy for HA for TLS termination and authentication.

So, it looks go to me.

IMHO, I don't think it's worth installing it in Docker or any other VM. It will consume quite a lot of resources.
However, if one has already a running web server, it's very simple to add a subdirectory to place Windfront files inside and serve it. But then it must be updated sometimes with new releases... This process is automated in HA.

If you want me to test something specific don't hesitate to ask for.
