Systems Tech, starting into Devops and web

ProxyForge is a free set of Nginx and Apache config generators. Pick a few options, copy the config, paste it on your server. No signup, and it runs in your browser - what you type isn’t sent anywhere.There are four tools:<ul><li>Config Generator - reverse proxy, WordPress, static sites and PHP-FPM, with HTTPS redirect, gzip and WebSocket options</li><li>Redirect Generator - HTTP to HTTPS, www or non-www, old domain to new, single pages</li><li>SSL Generator - the exact Certbot command plus a matching SSL config with HSTS and OCSP stapling</li><li>Security Headers Generator - HSTS, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy and an optional CSP</li></ul>The output was tested on real Nginx 1.27 and Apache 2.4 servers during development. Every config explains what each line does, warns about common traps, and ends with the commands to test and roll back.Two options came straight from launch-week comments: Behind Cloudflare (real visitor IPs, no redirect loops) and Older Nginx for distro packages before 1.25.1. Got an error that isn’t covered? The FAQ grows from real ones.Built by one person - Me, Myself and I and some AI during testing. Looking forward to some feedback.
