It seems like rejected-software forum is flooded with spam, so I
decided to ask it here. Is there a way to generate a file -csv
for example- on the back-end and serve it to the front-end as a
file.

Serve static file [1] function does this for files saved on the
disk. I want to be able to generate a file during runtime and
serve it to the client. Is this possible?

Thanks,
