Page Config — deep inside webpages
LEMP is a variation of the ubiquitous LAMP stack used for developing and deploying web applications. Traditionally, LAMP consists of Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP. Due to its modular nature, the components can easily be swapped out. With LEMP, Apache is replaced with the lightweight yet powerful Nginx.
We go with LEMP due to the pronunciation for Nginx: Engine-X ( en -juhn- ecks ). Think of how in English, the article an is used instead of a for hour even though it begins with a consonant. The importance is the sound of the first letter rather than its written representation. Besides, LEMP is actually pronounceable and doesn’t sound like reciting the alphabet.
lemp.io is a project to compile some of the best resources and guides on installing, configuring, and using LEMP stacks and their components.
