+# Nginx Reverse Proxy (experimental)
+
+- This guide is written for Debian/Ubuntu systems, other may work, but you have to do your setup on your own
+- Uvicorn does no longer serve requests directly
+- NGINX is used as HTTP & HTTPS entrypoint
+- Assumes you already have set up webserver certificate and private-key
+
+**Install Nginx Webserver**
+
+```shell
+apt-get install nginx-light
+```
+
+**Remove default vhost**
+
+```shell
+rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
+```
+
+**Create fastapi-dls vhost**
