A self-hosted web UI for viewing and editing nginx configuration files without using the CLI. It is delivered as a Docker container that mounts the host's nginx directory and lets users manage main configs and per-domain server blocks.

Use cases

• edit nginx config files through a browser instead of ssh
• let teammates add or update nginx sites without server access
• enable, disable, or delete nginx domain configs from a UI
• manage nginx reverse proxy configuration in a lab environment
• self-host a simple nginx configuration editor via docker

When to choose

• you run nginx on a small team or lab server and want non-admins to manage configs
• you want a lightweight, Docker-deployed UI that edits real nginx files in place
• you prefer a minimal tool without heavy dependencies

When to avoid

• you need built-in authentication, since the app ships without auth and relies on nginx basic auth
• you need multi-server or cluster-wide nginx management
• you need validation, testing, or safe rollback of config changes before applying them
