📋 General description or bullet points (if proposing new content)

We received a roadmap discussion for adding better proxy support from API endpoints. Based on the replies, this is possible today by returning the result of a fetch() call. This capability is not documented, nor is it very intuitive. Would be worth an explicit guide on Proxying Requests.

Worth noting vite has an api for it too https://vite.dev/config/server-options#server-proxy

This does sound like a great recipe that we can link to using our <RelatedRecipe/> component from the Endpoints page!

Putting a help wanted on this one in case anyone would like to put something together!
