Thank you so much for this response. I however, intend to also host a site on it in the future. Hope I won’t have a problem then?
Hello,
If you are going to host only one application then you could just use the default Nginx config file and add your rules there. The location should be at: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/.
That way when you access your droplet’s IP address you would be seeing the content specified by the rules of this default config.
Hope that this helps. Regards, Bobby
