Browser-based generator producing copy-ready server configs for reverse proxies, WordPress, static sites and PHP-FPM, with test-and-rollback steps for each.
About
You pick Nginx or Apache and the setup type, then fill in your domain and backend details, while toggles for HTTPS, gzip, WebSocket support and Cloudflare proxying update the config as you type. On Apache you can output either a .htaccess file for shared hosting or a full virtual host, and the page explains which proxy directives .htaccess does not allow. Settings stay in the browser, and a shared link keeps them.
Key Features
- Generates Nginx configs for reverse proxies, WordPress, static sites and PHP-FPM apps
- Outputs a .htaccess file or a full Apache virtual host from one form
- Toggles HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect, gzip, WebSocket support and IPv6 listen lines
- Adds Cloudflare proxy handling that restores real visitor IPs
- Lists test-and-rollback steps such as nginx -t and apachectl configtest
- Links common errors like 502 Bad Gateway and 413 upload failures to fixes
Use Cases
- Putting a Node.js or Python app behind Nginx with HTTPS and WebSocket support
- Setting up a WordPress or PHP-FPM site on a server running Nginx or Apache
- Writing a .htaccess proxy or redirect file for a site on shared hosting
From the founder
Who it's for
“For people running their own Nginx or Apache VPS, a home lab or shared hosting with .htaccess. It covers reverse proxies, WordPress/PHP, redirects, SSL, security headers and basic protection and it's free with no signup.”
Why I built it
“I'm an IT Tech from Trinbago and this is my solo side project. It started out of frustration with forum configs that broke when used in my lab. So I built a lab to test against real Nginx and Apache servers. I realized that I could do more and built this tool to share. Comments from launches helped shape it. "Test and roll back steps, Older Nginx and Behind Cloudflare" all came from suggestions.”
Who it is for
- Site owners on shared hosting who need a .htaccess file
- Developers & sysadmins deploying Node.js, Python or PHP-FPM on their own server
- WordPress site owners managing their own Nginx or Apache server
