import { contentType } from "https://deno.land/x/ks_spa2@0.1.1/server/deps.ts";

The function will treat the extensionOrType as a media type when it contains a /, otherwise it will process it as an extension, with or without the leading ..

Returns undefined if unable to resolve the media type.

Examples
