+# ContentType
+
+Handling ContentType auto-detection
+{: .subtitle }
+
+The Content-Type middleware - or rather its unique `autoDetect` option -
+specifies whether to let the `Content-Type` header,
+if it has not been set by the backend,
+be automatically set to a value derived from the contents of the response.
+
+As a proxy, the default behavior should be to leave the header alone,
+regardless of what the backend did with it.
+However, the historic default was to always auto-detect and set the header if it was nil,
+and it is going to be kept that way in order to support users currently relying on it.
+This middleware exists to enable the correct behavior until at least the default one can be changed in a future version.
+
+!!! info
+
+    As explained above, for compatibility reasons the default behavior on a router (without this middleware),
+    is still to automatically set the `Content-Type` header.
+    Therefore, given the default value of the `autoDetect` option (false),
+    simply enabling this middleware for a router switches the router's behavior.
