README

Brief

My work-in-progress web server in C++ mostly for practice (maybe for personal use later). See the below notes for important information and tips.

Requirements

• A *nix system
• Any modern C++ compiler
• CMake 3.28+

Get Started

1. Clone this repo onto your system.
2. Get utility.sh execute permissions, and run ./utility.sh help within your terminal for usage tips.
3. Build the program with that shell script.
4. Run ./build/src/myhttpd <port> <worker-count> <client-timeout> and feel free to use cURL or a web browser.

My To-Do's

• Refactor server into a multithreaded one using a thread pool.
• [] Add URI parsing
• [] Add cache header support
• [] Add application handlers
