Architecture

Adding a bit to the Remote Falcon architecture diagram from here, we have Cloudflared and MinIO.

All web traffic goes through Cloudflared directly into NGINX.

Then we also have MinIO to provide object storage. The control-panel connects directly to MinIO and MinIO is connected to NGINX to allow for images to be viewable when used on the viewer page.
