Image Proxy Server

This repository contains a simple image proxy server built with Node.js and Express.js. The server allows you to fetch and serve images from remote URLs by providing the image URL as a query parameter. It retrieves the image, sets the appropriate Content-Type header, and streams the image data as the response.

Features
