<p>Now at <a class="reference external" href="http://localhost">http://localhost</a> you should see a <em>Welcome to nginx!</em> page, on Fedora you
see a <em>Fedora Webserver - Test Page</em>. The test page comes from the default
<a class="reference external" href="https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/web-server/web-server/#setting-up-virtual-servers">nginx server configuration</a>. How this default site is configured,
depends on the linux distribution:</p>

<p>Now you have to create a configuration file (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">searxng.conf</span></code>) for the SearXNG
site. If <a class="reference external" href="https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/">nginx</a> is new to you, the <a class="reference external" href="https://nginx.org/en/docs/beginners_guide.html">nginx beginners guide</a> is a good starting
point and the <a class="reference external" href="https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/">Getting Started wiki</a> is always a good resource <em>to keep in the
pocket</em>.</p>
<p>Depending on what your SearXNG installation is listening on, you need a http or socket
communication to upstream.</p>
