Caddy

Can we get Caddy added to DietPi-Software?

See here: #5370
I hope Copilot or some AI can create Caddy configs for all our software options using a dedicated webserver, in a consistent way that it is easy to review and check back with documentation.

So is this something currently up for consideration?

"currently" is the wrong word: I always considered Caddy as next worthy candidate for a new webserver in dietpi-config, just the amount of work it implies was too much so far to actually start with it. With the help of AI doing drafts, this may change. But from my end, before adding a new webserver, I'll first align and complement webserver configs for all related software options. E.g. for phpBB and WordPress, Nginx and Lighttpd configs are missing entirely, rendering them problematic to use with anything but Apache2, where .htaccess does the most important access restrictions and redirects. Such should be addressed before adding even more half-baked/half-implemented webserver options on top, IMO.
