I want to set up a reverse proxy.

You can set up a reverse proxy by adding a server block in your configuration file. Here's a basic example:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name yourdomain.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
    }
}

Yes, how do I handle SSL with Nginx?

To handle SSL, you'll need to obtain an SSL certificate and then modify your server block to include SSL settings. Here's a simple example:

server {
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name yourdomain.com;

    ssl_certificate /path/to/certificate.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /path/to/private.key;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
    }
}
