Interesting options, configurations and information about nginx.

## Compression
|
|
*NOTE: The most reliable way to check whether content is compressed, is by using the debug tools in the webbrowser. Look for the "content-encoding" header*
|

|
These are the settings used by this website to compress with gzip.
|
|
These will suffice for most websites.
|
|
```
|
|
# Compression
|
|
gzip on;
|
|
gzip_vary on;
|
|
gzip_proxied any;
|
|
gzip_http_version 1.1;
|
|
gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css application/json application/javascript application/x-javascript text/javascript text/xml application/xml application/rss+xml application/atom+xml application/rdf+xml;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> All configuration options can be found in the [official documentation](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_gzip_module.html)
