Setting up Pi Zero OTG - The quick way (No USB keyboard, mouse, HDMI monitor needed)

More details - http://blog.gbaman.info/?p=791

For this method, alongside your Pi Zero, MicroUSB cable and MicroSD card, only an additional computer is required, which can be running Windows (with Bonjour, iTunes or Quicktime installed), Mac OS or Linux (with Avahi Daemon installed, for example Ubuntu has it built in).
1. Flash Raspbian Jessie full or Raspbian Jessie Lite onto the SD card.
2. Once Raspbian is flashed, open up the boot partition (in Windows Explorer, Finder etc) and add to the bottom of the config.txt file dtoverlay=dwc2 on a new line, then save the file.
3. If using a recent release of Jessie (Dec 2016 onwards), then create a new file simply called ssh in the SD card as well. By default SSH i

	# Sample Nginx config with sane caching settings for modern web development
	#
	# Motivation:
	# Modern web development often happens with developer tools open, e. g. the Chrome Dev Tools.
	# These tools automatically deactivate all sorts of caching for you, so you always have a fresh
	# and juicy version of your assets available.
	# At some point, however, you want to show your work to testers, your boss or your client.
	# After you implemented and deployed their feedback, they reload the testing page – and report
	# the exact same issues as before! What happened? Of course, they did not have developer tools
	# open, and of course, they did not empty their caches before navigating to your site.
