Caddy is a web server written in Go with automatic HTTPS, reverse proxy, and simple configuration. The modern alternative to Nginx and Apache.
Reviewer scorecard
“Serverless-specific observability that understood Lambda, Workers, and Vercel. Now part of Cloudflare's platform.”
“Automatic HTTPS and the Caddyfile syntax make web server config trivial. Reverse proxy setup is one line.”
“The acquisition validates the approach. Serverless needs purpose-built observability, not adapted APM tools.”
“Automatic HTTPS alone justifies switching from Nginx. The Caddyfile is infinitely more readable than nginx.conf.”
“Observability built into the platform (Cloudflare, Vercel) rather than bolted on is the right direction.”
“Caddy proves that web servers can be simple. Automatic HTTPS should have always been the default.”
