In this post, we will show you how to install Joomla on an Ubuntu 18.04 VPS with MySQL, PHP-FPM 7.2, and Nginx.

Joomla is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) for publishing web content written in PHP. Joomla is one of the most popular CMSs and it is used all over the world to power millions of websites of all shapes and sizes. Joomla can be used for small business and corporate websites, e-commerce stores, online magazines, personal blogs and portfolios and much more.

This guide should work on other Linux VPS systems as well, but it was tested and written for an Ubuntu 18.04 VPS.
