I want an Nginx reverse proxy server for load balancing that directs clients to one of two node.js web application servers. I plan to eventually deploy this project on a linux operating system probably on a vps.
I'm currently using windows 7 32 bit for development. As far as I can tell, apparently nginx does not support load balancing on windows. How can I use windows 7 32 bit to mimic a production environment, which presumably would be on a linux operating system? E.g. virtual machine? Docker?
