Blah blah blah.
It's a httpd, i.e. webserver software. It handles webpage requests and is faster than Apache. It's not quite as flexible, but that's because it's geared towards performance. A worthy tradeoff and should make for faster forums and less server load.What does it do?
Apache is like Microsoft Word, it has a million options but you only need six. Nginx does those six things, and it does five of them 50 times faster than Apache.
