 This approach is useful if you do not wish to grant Solid access to your HTTPS certificates, as nginx does not validate
 the self-signed certificates that Solid generates for its proxy_pass connection.

+Run solid-server on port 8443 behind a [nginx proxy](https://hub.docker.com/r/jwilder/nginx-proxy/) on 443, including
+certificate generation via [letsencrypt companion](https://github.com/JrCs/docker-letsencrypt-nginx-proxy-companion).
