herb # herb
--------- herb is a web server written in Rust which focuses on using minimal dependencies and ease of use. It began as a hobby project to create a basic web server and has since been expanded.
T(h)e hackabl(e) web se(r)ver (b)inary (Formerly the web server yer mom uses.)
In all seriousness! herb is able to send all types of data to clients, including text, video, audio, and images. It also supports dynamic webpages through CGI.
------------------------
This was a little fun experiment for me to mess around with Rust but at this point it has turned into a hobby server that I whittle away at.
At this point, if it's put behind a reverse proxy like HAProxy or nginx, it could actually be used as a small web server. ## Features
* Dynamic websites through CGI
* Only one external dependency (packeteer)
* Directory index generation
* Primitive media type detection
* Supports text and raw data, including PNGs and MP3s
* Installable with curze
To-do list ## Licensing
--------------- herb is licensed under [GNU General Public License version 3.](https://git.colean.cc/threeoh6000/herb/src/branch/master/LICENSE)
