Description

I'm running a few different services other than syncthing and all configured for nginx. I don't see any documentation for syncthing, however, for a configurable context/base path so that path routing could be configured correctly.

I saw some documentation about reverse proxy setup, but the configuration listed there does not work

Research direction

Start with the existing reverse-proxy documentation and verify the reported nginx configuration against Syncthing's documented base-path behavior. Determine whether a configurable context/base path is supported, then document the confirmed configuration or clarify its availability. Done when the reverse-proxy guidance addresses the reported path-routing case.
