This a middleware specifically for the Laravel framework and RESTful APIs build with it. It hashaes the response content and adds it to ETag header of HTTP response. Then it listenes to If-Match and If-None-Match headers of the requests that expect to receive json in response in order to see if a new content needs to be delivered or just 304 Not Modified response is sufficient.
