Setting up Reverse Proxy, no proxy middleware.

Hey, I'm trying to set up a reverse proxy by just using basic express and axios with webpack. for different services. WITHOUT USING PROXY MIDDLEWARE.

Every guide I've seen on this uses a proxy middleware like http-proxy, nginx, etc. Is there anyway to do this just using axios and webpack? I dont mind using middleware stuff like bodyParser, cors, etc.

But I want to avoid using any middleware that sets up the reverse proxy for me.
