install(CachingHeaders) {
    options { call, outgoingContent ->
        when (outgoingContent.contentType?.withoutParameters()) {
            ContentType.Text.CSS -> CachingOptions(CacheControl.MaxAge(maxAgeSeconds = 3600))
            ContentType.Application.Json -> CachingOptions(CacheControl.MaxAge(maxAgeSeconds = 60))
            else -> null
        }
    }
}
