Notably, you’ll need to wrap that in a handle directive though, because you’re also using a reverse_proxy.

Composing in the Caddyfile

Web server config files are mostly about expressing HTTP handling logic. Often, various handlers or middlewares need to be “composed” to form a cohesive HTTP handler that returns the desired responses. Structurally, config files are basically limited to two dimensions: rows and columns (or, lines and tokens). Syntactically, a config file’s second dimension can expand into more dimensions or scopes when blocks are opened (which are usually represented by curly braces { } and/or indentation, simi…

    }
    handle {
        try_files {path} {path}/ /index.html
        file_server
    }
}
