Pico HTTP Server in C

This is a very simple HTTP server for Unix, using fork(). It's very easy to use.

How to use

1. Include header httpd.h.
2. Write your route method, handling requests.
3. Call serve_forever("8000") to start serving on http://127.0.0.1:8000/.

See main.c, an interesting example.

To log stuff, use fprintf(stderr, "message");

View httpd.h for more information.

Test example

Open http://localhost:8000/test in browser to see request headers.
