Nginx server block generator

Nginx configs are remixes of static files, SPA fallbacks, PHP-FPM and reverse proxies. This generator writes a server block with gzip, security headers and optional HTTPS redirect.

Fill in the server_name and root or upstream. For Laravel, point root at public/ and pass PHP to php-fpm, or proxy to php artisan serve only in development.

Always run nginx -t before reload. A missing semicolon takes down the vhost.
