CORS & Hosting Notes

To load datasets from services like DKRZ Swift, ensure CORS is enabled on the server.

Example for the nextGEMS container on Swift:

swift post nextGEMS -m "X-Container-Meta-Access-Control-Allow-Origin:*"

This allows GridLook to fetch data directly from the container in your browser.
