    Caddy is an awesome web server alternative to nginx and apache (httpd). Caddy is written in Go, is a much more performant and extensible web server (in my opinion). With Caddy, you can host basic files or reverse proxy your API's, which is how I use it. I use Caddy because of its automatic TLS functionality so I don't have to worry about manual creation of certificates and keys.

  2. Get free geolocation API from our easy to use REST API via JSON, XML and CSV. No registration required - just go ahead and use it.
    When the client is instantiated, it uses freegeoip.app to determine the GPS coordinates of the client running the software. Then when the IsIPAddressNear() method is called, the library then looks up the GPS coordinates of the IP address specified, then compares the coordinates down to the specified decimal point (the library's usage of sensitivity) and determines if the IP address' location is close to yours.
