I tried following the tutorial at the link below to set up Nginx with my website, but I am confused about what folder to pick as the Nginx config `root` since my landing html page is in the `/app/resources/resource/views`, not the `/public` folder as is used in the demo. Furthermore, I am wondering how to manage the various `location` if they are subfolders of the public folder and my root is now not the public folder?

Maybe you could provide some insight @essenciary?

Thanks for your help!

I figured out how to launch the site by using Nginx tutorials. There should probably be a link to the Nginx documentation from the Genie documentation.
