I am a long time fan and user of Nginx. Consequently, I even maintain packages for Nginx for Windows. Because I like trying alternative web servers, and follow this topic, I heard of a newer web server written in Go called Caddy. Ultimately, I gave the Caddy Web Server a try over on my business site, kevindustries.com. I wrote up a quick introduction and summary about my experience with it.
Also included is a Github Gist (code snippet) showing my actual configuration (known as a Caddyfile) that I use to serve the Kevindustries site. See the blog post and configuration here: Caddy Web Server.
