Windows RDS 2012R2 Gateway & Web how they work together (Coming from a Citrix guru)

So I have been researching all over and having some trouble finding some details on the subject of RD Gateway & RD Web and how (or if) they work together.

I am come from a Citrix background and I am used to a Citrix NetScaler / StoreFront deployment. The Netscaler providing the HTTPS encryption proxying to the StoreFront which is the web interface where a user can launch a full desktop or application. I am curious if RDS works in a similar fashion, with RDS Gateway playing the role of NetScaler & RDS Web playing the role of StoreFront.

I am finding mixed information on this subject. Am I completely wrong and the two are independent of each other?

Is RDS Web used for the LAN only? RDS Gateway used for WAN access and only allowing access from an RDP client?

I have read it is best to have these two roles co-exist on the same machine (which I have done). I also plan to use an externally trusted SSL for my external FQDN remote.mydomain.com

Any information or articles that can me figure this out will be greatly appreciated!
