Nginx Config Generator
Nginx Config Generator is a free online tool for generating ready-to-use Nginx configuration files. It ships 11 templates across common scenarios — static site, reverse proxy, SPA, HTTPS, rate limiting, CORS, security headers, load balancing, Gzip compression, PHP-FPM, and WebSocket proxying. Just enter your domain and site root to generate a config.
All configs are generated locally in your browser with nothing uploaded, free and no registration needed. Handy for ops engineers and backend developers spinning up sites, adding HTTPS or a reverse proxy to a new service without digging through the docs.
How to Use
- Enter your domain name and site root path
- Pick a scenario from the Basic, Security, Advanced, or Application category
- Click a template (e.g., reverse proxy, HTTPS) to see the generated config instantly
- Click Copy Config and paste it into your server's Nginx configuration
FAQ
Is this Nginx config generator free?
Yes, it is completely free with no registration required, and all templates are available.
Is my domain information uploaded anywhere?
No. Configs are generated entirely in your browser from built-in templates — your domain and paths are never sent to any server.
Which configuration scenarios are covered?
11 templates across four categories: Basic (static site, reverse proxy, SPA), Security (HTTPS, rate limiting, CORS, security headers), Advanced (load balancing, Gzip), and Application (PHP-FPM, WebSocket proxying).
Can I use the generated config in production as-is?
The templates are curated with recommended settings and work as a solid base. You should still adjust details like certificate paths and upstream addresses for your environment, then validate with nginx -t before reloading.
