+:summary: An introductory on how to securely serve all your webapps using |website-nginx| and |website-uwsgi| with |website-systemd| on |website-archlinux|
+:authors: David Runge
+
+| Ever since I'm running my own |website-archlinux| box to serve my services, I have been using |website-nginx| in conjunction with |website-uwsgi|.
+| So instead of using |website-php-fpm| and be limited to just |website-php|, I can use a single application server to do all of them (|wiki-cgi|, |website-python|, |website-php| and even the stuff I don't use, such as |website-ruby|, |website-mono|, |website-java|, |website-lua|, |website-perl|, |website-webdav|). They are all separately installable as plugins.
+| Static sites, such as this, default to being served by |website-nginx| directly of course.
+| Over time I found |website-uwsgi| to be a very versatile and powerful piece of software that has many advantages (over e.g. |website-apache|):
+
+* socket activation
+* webapp encapsulation and jailing
+* self-healing
+* being able to separetely manage services
+* close after idle
+
+| I'll explain the services I use (|website-roundcube|, |website-owncloud|, |website-mailman|, |website-stikked|, |website-wordpress|, |website-postfixadmin|, |website-phpmyadmin|, |website-cgit|, |website-mediawiki|, |website-mantisbt| ) along with configuration examples and their possible pitfalls.
+| In my last post about `Let's Encrypt <../2016/lets-encrypt-it-all>`_ I already showed some examples on how to configure |website-nginx| for the use with |website-uwsgi|. Let's jump right in.
