A safe NGINX response filter for minifying HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, SVG and XML, plus the cache-turbo setup that keeps generated assets quick without turning workers into a Node build farm.

An open-source NGINX module that bakes a full ACME client into the server itself. Write autocert on; and NGINX gets, serves and renews its own Let’s Encrypt certificates — no certbot, no cron, no reload.

A page cache that lives inside nginx: no Varnish, no Lua, no second daemon. How cache-turbo uses stale-while-revalidate, L1/L2 tiers and single-flight refresh to keep your backend asleep under load.

The first audit found 22 issues, but the last two weeks of git history added 14 more issue-level fixes. This updated guide covers the full 36-issue fork-window story, the runtime and build bugs, and the CI tests now guarding the module.
