Syntax - Tasty Web Development Treats

NOTE

Using reverse proxy servers for static assets

Routing requests for static assets like CSS, JavaScript, and images through a reverse proxy server such as nginx or Caddy can significantly improve performance by bypassing the JavaScript application. This leads to faster responses, and when combined with caching and routing to CDN servers, it further optimizes the process. Additionally, running a server like Caddy locally enables obtaining true SSL certificates for .localhost domain names, creating a smoother and more professional local development environment.
