How To Make a Reverse Proxy with NGINX 2020

A reverse proxy is a very useful concept that allows us to redirect traffic within our own server.

In this example we are using we are using the reverse proxy to redirect traffic to an express application running on a different port.

neat I figure I could use to point to another server on the network instead of running all the different part on one single server thanks.

Hi there and thank for this explanation but i am still confuse about where to point the reverse proxy, i have 3 websites use in server block so should i point site2 and site3 reverse proxy to site1? Or should i just leave the default nginx index page as a fake website for main server and putting all 3 sites in their own directory? Thank for any help since i am reading for the past 2 days about this without understanding correctly.
