Intro

Relay is a middleware server built on top of Deno. The idea of Relay is to act like a relay server where any request sent to it will be forwarded to a different server that houses the concrete implementation.

This means that Relay can be used to encapsulate a network, thus meaning you do not need multiple machines to host multiple servers and or web applications.

Relay can:

1. Encapsulate a network and only forward 1 server that talks to servers internally.
2. Filter out incoming requests and decide what will be forwarded or not.
3. Eliminate the need to buy multiple certificates.
4. Serve websites and or web-apps.
5. Organise HTTP requests in so called models.
6. Decode incoming / outgoing requests.
7. Reload the models without needing to restart the server
8. Hide long URL names & params under a simple 2 sub route url.
9. Manipulate incoming requests before forwarding (eg. append headers)
