​
nginx

The nginx directory contains a herd.conf and the nginx.conf. Herd uses both to decide which sites it serves and what happens to files. In case you see a Bad Gateway error, there could be an issue in one of these files.

​
php

This directory contains all php.ini files for all PHP versions on your machine. If you use Herd Pro, it also contains debug.ini files that Xdebug uses when you enable it for a request. If you’re in debug mode, Herd loads the normal php.ini and applies the debug.ini on top. 
~/Library/Application Support/Herd/config/php

Herd stores all logs of nginx and php-fpm in this directory. It may also contain mail logs if you use Herd Pro.
