# HTTP Proxy

> [!WARNING]
>
> General-purpose web stacks such as Actix Web and hyper are not a good fit for building proxies. Consider [Rama](https://github.com/plabayo/rama) or [Pingora](https://github.com/cloudflare/pingora) instead.

This is a relatively simple HTTP proxy, forwarding HTTP requests to another HTTP server, including request body, headers, and streaming uploads.
