     * "app/src/scripts/main.es6". Since it is above the document root, the

API

browsersyncMiddlewareProxyRoutes(routes[, existingMiddleware])

Returns an array of middleware for serving routes. Each route gets its own middleware. This array will make up or contribute to the middleware option in your Browsersync configuration.

routes

Type: Object

// Since version 1.2.1
// The key is the url to match
// The value is which folder to serve (relative to your current working directory)

Reference: Browsersync options: server.

existingMiddleware

Type: Array

Default: []

If an array of existing middleware is provided, then the new middleware will be appended to it and the return value will be the updated middleware array.

Reference: Browsersync options: middleware.

* Experimental. The only purpose of this argument is to maintain consistency with the code upon which it was based. It may be removed or stablized in the future.
