NO FIREFOX AND CHROMIUM, I ALREADY SET THE FUCKING CORS HEADERS CORRECTLY ACCORDING TO THE OFFICIAL FUCKING NGINX DOCUMENTATION. WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU STILL DISALLOWING CROSS-ORIGIN REQUESTS?!

I'm learning nginx and it's simplying the way I think about web projects.

I used to think that when I used a server side framework, then that should be the master and all should go through it. Noob me.

I used to put client side projects (like create-react-app of vue-cli projects) right inside the server side project.

But with nginx you can just route subpaths to different places, then instead of having, let's say, the react project inside rails, they would be in separate git projects.

In fact, I no longer need to restrict myself to a single server framework.

I love several aspects of rails. I love several others of node. And if I need multithreaded performance, I'd very much use something like phoenix or go.

Again, with nginx, you setup subpaths with the `location` directive in the same server and voila, a no CORS setup, cookies shared and homogenous versatile website.

cors, really don't have time to fuck around today

We need to create simple form for colection few particular people data for some bounty programme.

We have ready-made website that does similar stuff, but it was outsourced and we have compiled javascript (sidenote - im only person in this place who understands f**ng javascript but hates it deeply)

Anyway, they come to me, and say that creating this google doc will take them few minutes and it seems that editing few divs in the site and creating second one with another subdomain will do the trick.

I tell them that it will take a lot of time to reverse engeneer that compiled react.js website to change few divs. But they insist.

So we start out, I pop up the terminal, copy over site, add nginx config for it, apply SSL to it, we are already good 5-10 minutes in, first roadblock - CORS. At this point I tell them that with google form they would be already done.

What I hear?
But we will need to make again privacy policy

Me:
Can you just link privacy policy from this site?

They:
Oh... it makes it easy now.

My internal voice:
next time try to use brain....
