I see the latest versions of MAMP include NGINX 1.6.

Can NGINX be used instead of apache, or is it just being used to server cached content. If possibel I'd rather use NGINX directives instead of .htaccess.

Looks like you can use NGINX as web-server instead of Apache.

Of course you have this option in MAMP PRO: choice of web server

Just keep in mind that NGINX needs a different set of parameters. Just trying to get this working myself.
