+# NGINX CONFIG DEPLOYMENT SCRIPT
+#
+# This script securely copies NGINX configuration files to a remote server
+# using an SSH key for authentication.
+#
+# INSTRUCTIONS:
+# 1. Edit the `REMOTE_USER` and `REMOTE_HOST` variables below.
+# 2. Place this script in the same directory as your `nginx.conf` file
+#    and your `sites-available` folder.
+# 3. Make the script executable with: chmod +x <script_name>.sh
+# 4. Run the script with: ./<script_name>.sh
+# ==============================================================================

+# --- Configuration ---
+# PLEASE EDIT THESE TWO VARIABLES with your server details.

+# Path to your private SSH key.
+# The '~' symbol represents your home directory.
