nginx debian caching Nginx

I'm stuck trying to I'm learning this framework and I'm stuck on something that should probably be simple. I'm working with an scenario where after updating my web application, Nginx continues to serve cached versions of my pages instead of the latest content. I've confirmed that the files on disk have been updated, but the changes aren't reflected when I access the pages through the browser. I've already tried clearing the browser cache and using incognito mode, but the question continues. My Nginx configuration is set up to cache responses for 10 minutes, and I have the following relevant settings in my Nginx config: ```nginx server { listen 80; server_name myapp.example.com; location / { proxy_pass http://localhost:3000; proxy_cache my_cache; proxy_cache_valid 200 10m; proxy_cache_use_stale behavior timeout invalid_header; } } ``` I also checked the cache headers in the response and they indicate that caching is enabled. I've attempted to manually clear the cache using `nginx -s reload` and even reloaded the entire service with `systemctl restart nginx`, but the scenario remains. Does anyone know how to ensure Nginx serves the most recent versions of my application files? Any insights into cache invalidation strategies would be appreciated! Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm working with Nginx in a Docker container on macOS. Thanks for your help in advance!
