I’m working with https://github.com/JetBrains/create-react-kotlin-app and have to enable CORS, but cannot figure out how. What I have tried so far, was placing a webpack config js file in the root directory with this content:

headers: {'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*'}

Anyone knows how to configure this properly?

What's the purpose for enabling CORS? Is it something you could do instead with the webpack proxy configuration?

Want to grab some data from another service via axio. Maybe the proxy configuration helps also out of here:

private fun <T> sendQuery(query: String, handler: (List<T>) -> Unit) {
        axios<Neo4JResultList<T>>(settings(query)).then { response ->
            handler(extractData(response.data))
        }
    }

    private fun settings(path: String): AxiosConfigSettings {
        return jsObject {
            url = "<http://localhost:8080/movies/$path>"
            method = "GET"
            headers = buildHeaders()

        }
    }

So proxying would be also fine, but I do not know how to configure webpack in create-react-kotlin-app code structure.

I'm not sure about that either, I found this article though for more info about webpack proxy: https://www.avitzurel.com/blog/2016/07/19/using-webpack-to-proxy-to-your-local-web-server-to-avoid-cross-site-errors/
