#   This file is included strictly as an example of how Nginx can be configured
#   to work with CryptPad. This example WILL NOT WORK AS IS. For best results,
#   compare the sections of this configuration file against a working CryptPad
#   installation (http server by the Nodejs process). If you are using CryptPad

    # CryptPad serves static assets over these two domains.
    # `main_domain` is what users will enter in their address bar.
    # Privileged computation such as key management is handled in this scope
    # UI content is loaded via the `sandbox_domain`.
    # "Content Security Policy" headers prevent content loaded via the sandbox
    # from accessing privileged information.
    # These variables must be different to take advantage of CryptPad's sandboxing techniques.
    # In the event of an XSS vulnerability in CryptPad's front-end code
    # this will limit the amount of information accessible to attackers.

    # CryptPad's dynamic content (websocket traffic and encrypted blobs)
    # can be served over separate domains. Using dedicated domains (or subdomains)
    # for these purposes allows you to move them to a separate machine at a later date
    # if you find that a single machine cannot handle all of your users.
    # If you don't use dedicated domains, this can be the same as $main_domain
    # If you do, they'll be added as exceptions to any rules which block connections to remote domains.
