Sep 20, 2018 at 20:49 comment added rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Oh, ok. Is that specified in the documentation somewhere?
Sep 20, 2018 at 19:18 comment added Richard Smith You do not need try_files to implement index. But if you do have a try_files statement, you need to add the $uri/ term, otherwise index will be disabled within that block.

Sep 20, 2018 at 19:12 comment added rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Gotcha! I remember reading that the index directive works on URIs with trailing slashes, but I did not immediately understand that the actual serving was implemented by try_files. It makes sense. Thank you!
