CONFIGURE NGINX FOR YOUR PROJECT
Create a .conf file in /etc/nginx/sites-available
for example type touch blog.app.conf
Copy and paste the code below to blog.app.conf
Be sure to change the server_name to blog.app and point the public directory properly to your laravel project's project directory
Then type sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/blog.app.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ to create a symbolic link. Be sure to write out the full path
Check if there are any errors inside sites-enabled/ folder. If there are errors remove the conf file and try again.
Then type sudo service nginx restart
You should be good to go. By now I hope you have added it to your project url to your /etc/hosts file

If you get '404 not found' error then please ensure and check doubly that your path next to 'root' is correct. I ran into problems because of incorrect path
