Do you think that’s not just the reverse-proxy (for the ssl certificates)? Can you just serve a homepage via nginx? I’m guessing you could simply redirect into a webroot dir with html files, but is it practical?
nginx is a very capable web server by itself, the reverse proxy is just one small part of it.
Without more information I’m just guessing, but they’re probably running the whole thing on-device, the CPU in that phone should have hardware cryptography support (For AES), but even ChaCha is pretty efficient in software on chips like that.
It’s nginx according to the response headers.
