# Team Tryouts - Production Nginx Configuration (Windows)
# 
# This configuration provides:
# - HTTP to HTTPS redirect
# - TLS 1.2/1.3 with strong ciphers
# - HSTS enforcement
# - Request size limits
# - gzip compression
# - Proxy to Waitress (Flask)
# - Security headers (reinforced at reverse proxy level)
