    I built ProxyForge to give developers a config generator that actually works – every Nginx or Apache snippet is verified against real binaries before you copy it. It runs entirely in the browser, lets you pick reverse proxy, WordPress, static site or PHP‑FPM, and outputs a ready‑to‑paste config. And its Free. I’d love your feedback 😊

Free Nginx and Apache config generator for reverse proxies, WordPress, static sites and PHP-FPM. Copy-ready output, verified against real server binaries. Most online config generators produce something that looks plausible but breaks on a real server (a missing directive or a directive that isn't legal for the file you're putting it in, or syntax error over as newer version has deprecated). This one is different: every combination it can produce has been checked against actual Nginx (1.27.x) and Apache (2.4.x) binaries during development, not just read over for typos but backed by a real nginx -t or a real Apache request-and-log check, not a guess. (This checking happens offline, not live in your browser each time you generate a config — so there's no way to run a real server binary client-side, and this tool doesn't try to.)
