Using Caddy with Cloudflare offers several benefits. Caddy simplifies the setup of HTTPS and other configurations compared to using Cloudflare's origin server directly. It provides better control over the web server configuration and allows for easier integration with other services. Caddy can also handle tasks like request routing and caching, supplementing Cloudflare's caching capabilities. Finally, Caddy's automatic HTTPS configuration is a major time-saver.
