In order to use NGINX as a reverse proxy for GoToSocial you'll need to have it installed on your server. If you intend for the NGINX instance to also handle TLS, you'll need to [provision TLS certificates](../../advanced/certificates.md) too.
+!!! tip
+ Enable HTTP/2 in nginx by including `http2` in the `listen` directives. This can speed up the experience for clients. Browsers do not support HTTP/2 over plain text, so this should only be added to `listen` directives for port `443` that also include the `ssl` directive.

NGINX is [packaged for many distributions](https://repology.org/project/nginx/versions). It's very likely you can install it with your distribution's package manager. You can also run NGINX using a container runtime with the [official NGINX image](https://hub.docker.com/_/nginx) that's published to the Docker Hub.
In this guide we'll also show how to use certbot to provision the TLS certificates. It too is [packaged in many distributions](https://repology.org/project/certbot/versions) but many distributions tend to ship fairly old versions of certbot. If you run into trouble it may be worth considering using the [container image](https://hub.docker.com/r/certbot/certbot) instead.
