About NGINX Unit

Universal web app server

NGINX Unit is a lightweight and versatile application runtime that provides the essential components for your web application as a single open-source server: running application code (including WebAssembly), serving static assets, handling TLS and request routing.

Unit was created by nginx team members from scratch to be highly efficient and fully configurable at runtime. You can read the details about the latest release in the news section.
