Although Caddy's binaries are completely static, Caddy relies on some excellent
libraries. [Godoc.org](https://godoc.org/github.com/mholt/caddy) shows the
packages that each Caddy package imports.
How you choose to run Caddy is up to you. Many users are satisfied with
`nohup caddy &`. Others use `screen`. Users who need Caddy to come back up
after reboots either do so in the script that caused the reboot, add a command
to an init script, or configure a service with their OS.
