Project Mission

Project mission is to provide the community with simple and functional web server library and web server executable built on top of that library.

The target audience are application or device developers looking to implement web interface for their applications or devices and web developers looking for a simple development platform.

Overview

To accomplish it's mission, Mongoose keeps balance on functionality and simplicity by carefully selected list of features:

  • Liberal MIT license, which is great for commercial use
  • Crossplatform - works on Windows, Mac and UNIX
  • CGI, SSL, SSI, Digest (MD5) authorization, Websocket, WEbDAV support
  • Lua server pages support (PHP-like functionality using Lua), see page.lp
  • Resumed download, URL rewrite, IP-based ACL, Windows service
  • Excluding files from serving by URI pattern (file blacklist)
  • Download speed limit based on client subnet or URI pattern
  • Small footprint: executable size is 50 kB on Linux 2.6 i386 system
  • 130 kilobytes Windows executable with all of the above and no dependencies
  • Embeddable with simple and clean API (mongoose.h). The source is in single mongoose.c file to make things easy.
  • Embedding examples: hello.c, post.c, upload.c, websocket.c

See manual for more information.
