Start Homebrew Installed Version of NGINX When macOS Boots

If you want to start NGINX on system bootup you can use Homebrew‘s handy service command.

• Step 1: Install NGINX via homebrew – if not already installed.
• Step 2: Add NGINX as an autostart service – sudo brew services start nginx.

brew install nginx
sudo brew services start nginx

After NGINX is added to the autostart, you can disable its autostart using the following command:

sudo brew services stop nginx
