-    When an index.html and an index.php file are present the server will still
-    start with PHP-FPM enabled but the index.html will take precedence over the
-    index.php file. This means when an index.html file is present in 
-    ``public``, it will be displayed instead of the index.php which would show
-    e.g. the Symfony application.
