## What it is
An online web proxy that uses browser Service Workers to intercept and rewrite requests client-side, so the nginx-based server only forwards traffic without modifying content. It includes API virtualization via JS hooks so proxied pages see original URLs, and offers a Cloudflare Worker serverless variant.

## Use cases
- self-host a web proxy to browse blocked sites
- deploy a low-overhead online proxy with nginx
- mirror websites for research
- study phishing site detection techniques
- run a serverless proxy on Cloudflare Workers
- accelerate access to frontend resources

## When to choose
- you want a self-hosted online proxy with minimal server CPU cost
- you need a proxy that preserves original URLs for page JavaScript
- you prefer a serverless deployment via Cloudflare Workers
- you want frontend hosting separated from the proxy backend

## When to avoid
- you need to support legacy browsers without Service Worker support
- you want a turnkey VPN or full traffic tunnel rather than web proxying
- you need active maintenance and recent updates
- you cannot run a Linux server with root access or port 80 exposure
