Research direction

The issue names prerender-node middleware and Express but no file or test. Start with the middleware usage and X-Prerender header behavior; done would be a clear documented answer explaining how to configure separate desktop and mobile handling.

Description

Hi

I am using prerender-node middleware. I want to set up my middle-ware to check x-prerender : 1 for handling desktop vs mobile devices separately.

Thanks in advance.
