Angie
Open-source web server forked from nginx, intended as a drop-in replacement for it.
Angie is a web server and reverse proxy forked from nginx. The project describes it as a drop-in replacement, so existing nginx setups can move over without major changes to module setup or configuration. The migration guide replaces a packaged nginx with a packaged Angie on the same host. The installation guide lists binary packages for most Linux distributions and FreeBSD, Docker images and a source build. The server runs as a master process with worker processes. The docs include a guide to OpenID Connect sign-in.
Worth knowing
Angie PRO is a commercial edition with features the open-source version lacks. Its binary packages sit in a private repository, and access requires a contract and a license.
