caddy-deflate

A caddy plugin that adds support for HTTP's Accept-Encoding: deflate for caddy.

Note: This follows the official definition for http deflate, that being a deflate stream wrapped with zlib, not a raw deflate stream! (many implementations have made this mistake)

Building with xcaddy

xcaddy build \
