Nginx is not just "the web server"

Your API runs on port 3000.

But your users should never know that. 🔒

Most people configure it once to serve static files and never touch it again.

Big mistake. 💻

When you have multiple services running on the same VPS, nginx stops being "the web server" and becomes the gatekeeper of your entire infrastructure.

One single entry point. It decides where each request goes.

How it works in production:

→ User hits port 443 (HTTPS)

→ Nginx receives, validates SSL and routes internally

→ Your service responds from port 3000 — never exposed to the world 🛡️

Same applies if you have 5 services — nginx manages them all from a single point.

One VPS. Real HTTPS. No port exposed to the world.
