How to Install LEMP Stack (Nginx, MariaDB, PHP7.2) on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

This tutorial is going to show you how to install Nginx, MariaDB and PHP7.2 (LEMP) on Ubuntu 18.04. You can follow this tutorial on a VPS (Virtual Private Server) or on a local Ubuntu 18.04 computer. PHP7.2 is included in Ubuntu 18.04 and has a minor performance improvement over php7.2.

Prerequisite

To follow this tutorial, you need to have an Ubuntu 18.04 OS running on your local computer or on a remote server. If you are looking for a VPS (Virtual Private Server), then I recommend Linode, from which you can get a 1GB server for only 5 USD per month. You can also get $10 free credit by using the promo code DOCS10 if you are a new customer. Without further ado, let’s get started.
