Help!

I know the HAProxy manual exists, but it is overwhelming for people new to HAProxy.

Does anyone have any recommendations on good resources to learn HAProxy?

The manual is divided in different parts and the configuration manual is indeed quite dense.

The intro/starter guide should be what you are looking for:
