Nginx instead of Apache? #22

Closed joemaller closed 6 years ago

Anyone have thoughts on switching the base box from Apache to Nginx?

Seems to me that there's not really any reason to be concerned with which server architecture is running, so long as the PHP environment matches what's offered by the big managed hosts. I've been switching some other projects from Apache to Nginx and it's a lot lighter and easier to configure.

Also PHP7 (ideasonpurpose/basic-wordpress-box#8) seems to want to run as a FastCGI process, which makes PHP ambivalent about which server platform it's running on.
