-Apps will now detect when a relative `backend.baseUrl` or `app.baseUrl` is provided and update it to be a full URL. This means that you can provide relative URLs and they will be resolved as expected across the application.
+Apps will now rewrite `app.baseUrl` and `backend.baseUrl` to match `location.origin` when `app.baseUrl` is the same as `backend.baseUrl`. This will help reduce the number of front end builds you have to do with a specific config.
