General: Proxy Advanced

This example demonstrates a user case whereby the app proxies all urls that start with /api to http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/, but removes /api from the url. So http://localhost:8080/api/users should perform a request to http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users.

npx webpack serve --open

What should happen

1. The script should open http://localhost:8080/ in your default browser.
2. You should see the text on the page itself change to read Success!.
3. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/api/users.
4. The page should display several JSON objects.
5. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/api/nope.
6. The page should display `Bypassed proxy!``.
