Fixes
In the
using your own proxysection of guide.md, there is no current documentation about forwarding server-side requests to a reverse proxy, which is often required to make the webapp functional behind your own reverse proxy. This is was my first time reverse proxying a web app, and had trouble finding this documentation until I found it in the FAQ Section of the Coder Docs, which I link to in the documentation for further reading.This is my first PR, apologies for any mistakes!
