Feature Request
Use Case
Why do you want this?
There is a restify-cors-middleware package (which is recommended by restify documentation), but unfortunately it has been abandoned for the last 2 years. Considering that the CORS is an important aspect of today's web, I think it would be justified to make it a core plugin. For comparison, Fastify has it as a core plugin.
Example API
This should include code snippets and documentation for the proposed feature
Please see https://github.com/Tabcorp/restify-cors-middleware#readme
Are you willing and able to implement this?
"Yes" or, if "no", what can current contributors do to help you create a PR?
Unfortunately not at this point.
