 ===== Basic Nginx Configuration =====
-refer: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/basic-functionality/managing-configuration-files/
+Some basic directives:
-<code ini>

+  * request_filename (refer: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/web-server/web-server/)<code>
+if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^ /path/index.php last; }
+</code> => This checks whether there is a file, directory, or symbolic link that **matches the $request_filename**. If such a file is **not found**, the connection is being **redirected to /path/index.php**.
+  * try_files (refer https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/web-server/serving-static-content/)<code>
+location / {
+    try_files $uri $uri/ $uri.html =404;
+}
+</code><code>
+location / {
+    try_files $uri $uri/ /test/index.html;
+}
+</code> => you probably understand:<code>
+location / => matches all locations**
+try_files $uri =>try $uri first, for example http://example.com/images/image.jpg nginx will try to check if there's a file inside /images called image.jpg if found it will serve it first.
+$uri/=> which means if you didn't find the first condition $uri try the URI as a directory
