+This way, when you `fetch('/api/todos')` in development, the development server will recognize that it’s not a static asset, and will proxy your request to `http://localhost:4000/api/todos` as a fallback. The development server will only attempt to send requests without a `text/html` accept header to the proxy.

 Currently the `proxy` option only handles HTTP requests, and it won’t proxy WebSocket connections.  
 If the `proxy` option is **not** flexible enough for you, alternatively you can:
