Description

I deploy my D1 apps via dispatch.fcgi like this:

ScriptAlias /appx /path/to/appx/dispatch.fcgi

See:
https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Dancer/lib/Dancer/Deployment.pod#Running-as-a-cgi-script-or-fast-cgi-under-Apache

Should D2 support this as well?

Research direction

Start with the linked Dancer Deployment.pod section on running as a CGI or FastCGI script, then inspect how D2 handles dispatch.fcgi and Apache ScriptAlias deployment. Verify whether the shown /appx mapping works in D2; done means either documented support or a clearly identified implementation path with a reproducible deployment check.
