Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.
A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.

Code to change a request from / to /app1/ | |
reqirep ^([^\ :]*)\ /(.*) \1\ /app1/\2 | |
If urls in the response contain absolute urls it might be required to use this: | |
acl no_redir url_beg /app1/ | |
reqirep ^([^\ :]*)\ /(.*) \1\ /app1/\2 if !no_redir | |
The code makes sure that the method and url-path behind the / stays the same. Which method you need exactly might depend on the application thats running. | |
For readability of the above how change a request from /app1/ to /app1/app1redir/ | |
reqirep ^([^\ :]*)\ /app1/(.*) \1\ /app1/app1redir/\2 |
