Http OPTIONS request doesn't work with Server Proxy

[mannukalra]

Describe the bug

For react-ts template OPTIONS (HTTP method) request doesn't get forwarded to the proxy back-end port, always receives a 204 No Content response.
Is it possible that options call isn't implemented.

Have tried going through node-http-proxy , couldn't find any way to specify the supported HTTP methods.

You can set server.cors: false to disable that behavior.
