servt

a programmatic web server, with very few dependencies.

why

• many big frameworks are too heavy for small projects, or don't suit yours (or my!) development style
• so this is small, easy to use, but still powerful

features

async

• enabled by default, adds smol as a dependency (adds around 35 deps)
• executes all requests by spawning a new task
• if not enabled, falls back to std::thread (which spawns a new thread for each request)

time

• enabled by default, adds chrono as a dependency (adds around 2 deps, as the features enabled are very few, namely alloc and now)
• adds a Date header to all responses
• this is technically required by the HTTP/1.1 spec, but the majority of clients will work without it
