zohaibq64/nginx-ssl-offload repository overview

Nginx SSL Offloading Docker Image A ready-to-use Nginx Docker image with SSL offloading preconfigured. This image comes with a dummy self-signed certificate so you can test HTTPS immediately. Users only need to:
• Plug in their backend server
• Optionally provide real SSL certificates

---

✅ Features:
• Preconfigured for HTTPS (SSL/TLS)
• Automatically redirects HTTP → HTTPS
• Proxy setup for backend apps (e.g., Node.js, Python, PHP)
• Includes dummy self-signed certs (for testing/dev)
• Just build or pull and go!

🔧 Configuration
By default:

Replace dummy certs by mounting your own:
-v /path/to/certs:/etc/nginx/ssl
Or edit the Dockerfile to copy in your real certs.
