LocalCDN uses redirection for certain requests. There is a [mapping file](https://codeberg.org/nobody/LocalCDN/src/branch/main/core/mappings.js#L71) that lists the source (all CDNs and the path to the frameworks) and a [resource file](https://codeberg.org/nobody/LocalCDN/src/branch/main/core/resources.js#L328) that defines the destination.

Currently only JavaScript and CSS files are redirected. However, some CSS files internally refer to other files, e.g. Font Awesome. All requests are redirected to a local file, e.g. [jQuery](https://codeberg.org/nobody/LocalCDN/src/branch/main/resources/jquery). This is the reason why the extension is currently 14 MB in size. Only if LocalCDN cannot find a local resource (and the option is enabled), a request will be blocked. Currently only JavaScript and CSS files are redirected.
