When using nginx to proxy HTTPS connections to Solid you will need to specify HTTPS in the local service URI:
39+
40+
`proxy_pass https://127.0.0.1:8443;`

This approach is useful if you do not wish to grant Solid access to your HTTPS certificates, as nginx does not validate

the self-signed certificates that Solid generates for its proxy_pass connection.
