+# Nginx Secure
+
+This repository provides a Dockerized Nginx setup that integrates with Certbot for automatic SSL certificate deployment. It's designed to facilitate secure HTTP and HTTPS traffic forwarding with minimal manual configuration.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Automatic SSL Certificates**: Utilizes Certbot to automatically retrieve and renew SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt.
+- **Nginx as a Reverse Proxy**: Configured to act as a reverse proxy, forwarding requests to your application.
+- **Dockerized for Ease of Deployment**: Everything runs inside Docker, ensuring consistency across different environments.
+
+## Usage
+
+You can use the pre-built Docker image `nocodb/nginx-secure` as: 
+
+```yaml
+services:
+    nginx:
+      image: nocodb/nginx-secure
+      ports:
+        - "80:80"
+        - "443:443"
+      volumes:
+        - ./certs:/etc/letsencrypt/
+      restart: unless-stopped
+      env_file: docker.env
+
+    application:
+      image: your-application
+      restart: unless-stopped
+```
+
+Checkout `docker.env.sample` for the required environment variables.
+
+## Building the Image
+
+If you need custom nginx configurations, you can build the image yourself:
+
+1. Clone this repository.
+2. Modify the `default.conf.template` file as needed.
+3. Run `docker build -t nginx-secure .` in the repository root.
