You can serve static files by having a file in priv/static and matching the path in the Plug.Static options:

  plug Plug.Static,
    at: "/", from: :hello_phoenix, gzip: false,
    only: ~w(css fonts images js favicon.ico robots.txt my_fine.html)

You can also bypass the layout using put_layout/2:

conn
|> put_layout(false)

The put_layout/2 function can also be called as a plug (due to the function arguments). This is useful if you want it to apply to the entire controller:

plug :put_layout, false
