Feather Runtime

Feather Runtime is a lightweight, multithreaded HTTP server engine for Feather. It provides enhanced control over low-level server operations and replaces tiny-http, which is no longer maintained.

Features

• 🚀 Multithreaded Request Handling – Efficiently handles multiple connections using a thread pool.
• 🔄 Graceful Shutdown – Cleanly shuts down on signal
• 🌍 Dynamic HTTP Responses – Easily generate responses based on incoming requests.
• ⚡ Buffered I/O – Optimized performance with BufReader and BufWriter.

Why Feather Runtime?

I built Feather Runtime because I wanted greater control over the low-level aspects of the framework. tiny-http, the library Feather was originally based on, is no longer maintained, making it necessary to develop a more flexible and future-proof solution.

Feather Runtime ensures a modern, efficient, and reliable HTTP server experience tailored for Feather.

For Contributors

If you're contributing to Feather but don't want to mess with low-level server internals, you can mostly ignore this subcrate. Feather Runtime is designed to handle the core HTTP processing while Feather itself provides higher-level abstractions. If you have a feature request or a problem open a Issue for it
