Several modules that supports several versions of programming languages
can be coexist.  That's definitely what I'm locking for.

Unit's PHP module depends on a PHP shared library, will take a look on
that.  I'm from FreeBSD world and Unit's Go and Node.js modules can't
be added to the FreeBSD ports tree, need you guidance here.

In case NGINX needs to be a front-end or reverse proxt, then yes.

I don't think so.

It's possible to use it as a reverse proxy.

Depends on needs, there're so many cases.

Good point, will take a look how can I add a port/package message.

Thank you.
