# Configuration This page contains articles, references, indexes, and instructions for configuring Angie. ## General Information These articles cover installation and configuration of Angie, starting and stopping the web server, managing it, as well as various aspects of request processing and interaction with other servers. * [Configuration](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/configfile.md) * [Management](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/runtime.md) * [Connections, Sessions, Requests, Logs](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/processing.md) ## References and Indexes These summary sections provide reference information on built-in modules, examples of their configuration, as well as supported directives and variables. * [Modules](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/modules/index.md) * [Variables](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/varindex.md) * [NJS API Reference](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/njs-reference.md) You can also use the short link service at [https://angie.ws/](https://angie.ws/) to quickly find individual directives and variables: * [Quick Access](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/quickaccess.md) ## Documentation for AI assistants The site ships machine-readable copies of every documentation page so that LLM-powered tools — Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, and other agentic assistants — can ingest the content directly instead of scraping rendered HTML. ### llms.txt and llms-full.txt Each language subdomain serves an [llms.txt](https://llmstxt.org/) sitemap with a short project description and a list of every page (title, absolute URL, annotation). Its companion `llms-full.txt` concatenates the full Markdown body of every page into a single file suitable for one-shot ingestion: - [https://en.angie.software/llms.txt](https://en.angie.software/llms.txt) - [https://en.angie.software/llms-full.txt](https://en.angie.software/llms-full.txt) These URLs are also advertised in [robots.txt](https://en.angie.software/robots.txt) via the `Llms:` directive, so LLM crawlers discover them automatically. ### Markdown versions of pages Every HTML page has a Markdown twin. To fetch the Markdown version of any documentation URL, replace the trailing slash with `.md`: - HTML: [https://en.angie.software/angie/docs/configuration/](https://en.angie.software/angie/docs/configuration/) - Markdown: [https://en.angie.software/angie/docs/configuration.md](https://en.angie.software/angie/docs/configuration.md) Markdown is generated from the same reStructuredText source as the HTML build, so the content always stays in sync. ### Context7 Angie documentation is indexed on [Context7](https://context7.com/), a registry that serves up-to-date library documentation to AI code editors through its MCP server. The English Angie listing is at [https://context7.com/websites/en_angie_software_angie](https://context7.com/websites/en_angie_software_angie). ## Instructions Step-by-step instructions for specific aspects of configuring Angie are provided here. * [Configuring ACME](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/acme.md) * [Configuring clusters](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/cluster.md) * [Configuring OIDC](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/oidc.md) * [Configuring SSL](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/ssl.md) * [Console Light Panel](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/monitoring.md) * [Custom metrics](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/custom-metrics.md) * [Migrating from nginx](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/migration.md) * [Unsupported nginx Directives](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/nginx-unsupported-directives.md) * [Grafana Panel](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/grafana.md) ## Community Materials We have collected community resources that will help you better understand configuring and using Angie. ### Articles - [Angie: A New NGINX Fork Developed by Some of Its Former Devs](https://linuxiac.com/angie-web-server-is-a-new-nginx-fork/) on Linuxiac - [What's New in the Angie 1.9 Web Server (an nginx fork) and What to Expect from 1.10?](https://habr.com/en/articles/911444/) on Habr ### Courses English-language courses on Angie are not currently available.
