Issue 1: Caddy failed to bind (Linux/MacOS)

Check if you have a LISTEN port already open on port 80:

sudo netstat -ltnp | grep ":80"

If you do have it, please close the program responsible.

Then, because ports under port 1024 are considered privileged ports, I think, so we need to make an exception for caddy. You can also run sudo caddy run instead, but I didn’t want to slap sudo everywhere.

sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' $(which caddy)

Now task dev should run fine.
