NGINX Config Generator

Free

Generate NGINX server block configurations

About NGINX Config Generator

NGINX server blocks are powerful but unforgiving — a missing semicolon or a misordered directive can break a reload, and the docs assume you already know the structure. NGINX Config Generator produces a clean server block configuration from your settings, giving you valid, well-organized config instead of cobbling directives together from old gists.

Specify what you need and the tool generates the server block in your browser. It is free, needs no account, and outputs the config instantly. Use it to set up a new site, a reverse proxy, or static file serving with a structure that's correct out of the gate, then layer in your own tuning.

Common uses

  • Generate a server block for a new site or virtual host
  • Set up a reverse proxy configuration to a backend service
  • Create a config for serving static files with sensible defaults
  • Get a clean starting point for an HTTPS-enabled server block

FAQ

Is the generated config ready to deploy?

It's a clean, valid starting point. Adjust paths, upstreams, TLS certificate locations, and security directives to match your environment before reloading NGINX.

Does it set up SSL certificates for me?

It can include the relevant directives, but you supply and install the actual certificates yourself through your CA or a tool like Certbot.

Can it generate reverse proxy settings?

Yes, it can produce a server block configured to proxy requests to a backend you specify.

Can I use NGINX Config Generator on mobile?

Yes — ToolHub is fully responsive and works on iPhone, Android, tablets and all modern browsers. No app install needed.
