Nginx Website Deployment Guide

This repository contains the build artifacts required to deploy a website on Nginx (Linux Web Server).

Follow the steps below to deploy the application successfully.

Prerequisites

  • Linux OS (Ubuntu recommended)
  • Sudo / root access
  • Nginx installed

Step 1: Install Nginx

Run the following commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nginx -y

Start and enable Nginx:

sudo systemctl start nginx
sudo systemctl enable nginx

Verify installation by opening browser:

http://localhost

Step 2: Download and Extract Artifacts

  1. Download the ZIP artifacts from this GitHub repository
  2. Extract the ZIP file:
unzip your-artifact.zip

Step 3: Deploy Artifacts to Nginx Directory

Default Nginx web directory:

/var/www/html

Copy files:

sudo cp -r * /var/www/html/

Set correct permissions:

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html

Step 4: Configure Nginx (Optional but Recommended)

Edit default config:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default

Update root path if needed:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name localhost;

    root /var/www/html;
    index index.html index.htm;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }
}

Test config:

sudo nginx -t

Restart Nginx:

sudo systemctl restart nginx

Access the Application

Open browser:

http://localhost

Your website should now be live on Nginx 🎉

Agar tu bata de ki project React / Angular / Node / static kya hai, toh main exact optimized Nginx config bhi bana dunga (reverse proxy, SPA routing, etc.).
