NGINX reverse proxy in front of Plex media server v1.3.3.3148
# This example assumes the NGINX proxy is on the same host as the Plex Media Server.
# To configure Plex Media Server to serve requests without requiring authentication,

IMPORTANT

If you plan on switching between different branches (e.g. git checkout master-experiment then revert back with git checkout master) you will loose your child folder from this tutorial (because it's in your .gitignore and is not part of your master branch).
