A boilerplate Nginx configuration template with include-based structure, optimized defaults, and handy snippets for SSL, rate limiting, caching, and PHP integration. It ships Docker and docker-compose setups, including Docker Swarm support.

Use cases

• set up a production-ready nginx config
• secure nginx with an A-grade SSL setup
• rate limit requests in nginx
• run nginx with docker-compose
• deploy nginx to docker swarm
• configure fastcgi caching for php
• get sensible nginx defaults instead of writing configs from scratch

When to choose

• you want a battle-tested nginx config baseline with SSL, caching, and rate limiting out of the box
• you deploy PHP-FPM apps behind nginx in Docker or Swarm
• you prefer include-based modular nginx configs

When to avoid

• you use a web server other than nginx
• you need a control panel or GUI for server management
• the project's last release is from 2018 and you need support for the newest nginx features
