Install NGINX on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Today we’ll look at installing NGINX on a freshly installed server running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

A little bit about NGINX: NGINX is a lightweight opensource web browser capable of serving static files using far lesser memory than Apache and handling up to 4 times as many connections.

Start off by making sure things are updated on your server. Issue the following to do so:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Next, issue the following to install NGINX

sudo apt-get install

To start the server issue:

sudo service nginx start
