Nginx Location Priority Reference
Nginx evaluates locations in this order of precedence:
= (Exact Match): The highest priority. If found, processing stops immediately.
^~ (Non-Regex Prefix): If the longest prefix match is found with this flag, regex matches are not checked.
~ / ~* (Regex): Evaluated in the order they appear in the configuration file.
Prefix Match: If no other match is found, the longest non-regex prefix match is used.
