Before You Begin<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Check for updates
    \nsudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Install nginx<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. Install nginx
      \nsudo apt-get install -y nginx<\/code><\/li>\n
    2. Decide how you want to access parse:
      \na. example.com\/parseapp\/
      \nb. parseapp.example.com\/ (don’t forget to add an A record for parseapp pointing to the IP address and include subdomain in Let’s Encrypt certificates)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Setup nginx for example.com\/parseapp\/<\/h2>\n
        \n
      1. Change directory
        \ncd \/etc\/nginx\/sites-enabled\/<\/code><\/li>\n
      2. Open default
        \nsudo nano default<\/code><\/li>\n
      3. Select all
        \nctrl+shift+6<\/kbd>
