Rewrite with Edge Functions

You can rewrite requests on one URL to resources available on another URL using an Edge Function.

import type { Context } from "@netlify/edge-functions";

export default async (request: Request, context: Context) => {
  return new URL("/something-to-serve-with-a-rewrite", request.url);
};

What are Edge Functions?

Using JavaScript and TypeScript, Netlify Edge Functions give you the power to modify network requests to localize content, serve relevant ads, authenticate visitors, A/B test content, and much more!

This all happens at the Edge — directly from the worldwide location closest to each user.

To use Edge Functions on Netlify, add JavaScript or TypeScript files to a /netlify/edge-functions directory in your project.

Learn more in the docs.
