A super simple and lightweight HTTP server written in Java.

Features

• HTTP/1.1
• Supports cookies
• File serving/streaming
  • Supports partial content responses (Range header)
  • Supports ETags
  • Sends large files without memory overhead (e.g. mp4)

Basic Example

This starts a server on port 8080, with a single route returning plain text.

HttpServer server = new HttpServer(8080)
    .use(new Router()
        .get("/hello", req -> new Response(Status.OK).body("Hello, world!"))
    )
    .start();

System.out.println("Web server listening on port " + server.getPort());
