I have a main domain, eg.: mydomain.com.
A Single Page Application: myApp, hosted on: myApp.somehost.com (IP: {ip.of.myapp}).
A WordPress Site: myWP, hosted on: myWP.anotherhost.com (IP: {ip.of.mywp}).
The goal:
- mydomain.com should show myWP (this is straight forward, I need an A record in my DNS NameServer, with {ip.of.mywp})
- mydomain.com/app should show myApp.
How would you solve the second one? Is there a frontend-proxy service provider or so?
What I tried:
- Cloudflare CDN: rewriting the hostname is not allowed.
- Vercel: here I can host static pages (myApp) and proxy certain subpaths. But not the root url! So mydomain.com can't show myWp
What should I do? Please help... Thanks
Note: I'm not planning to move myApp and myWP from their current servers.

You are correct about rewrite rules not supporting this with Cloudflare, but you can use Cloudflare Workers to act as a proxy. Here is a blog article going over details of one way you could achieve what you are looking for -

Here are also a number of other Worker examples that may come in handy -

Do keep in mind the pricing / limits of free plan if you go this route - https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/pricing
