Mongoose Description

Mongoose is an intuitive application that can easily be be embedded into existing programs in order to provide a web interface for them. The web server executable is self-sufficient, it does not depend on anything to start serving requests. If it is copied to any directory and executed, it starts to serve that directory on port 8080 (so to access files, go to http://localhost:8080). If some additional config is required - for example, a different listening port or IP-based access control, then a 'mongoose.conf' file with respective options can be created in the same directory where the executable lives. All these features make Mongoose an optimal solution for all sorts of demos, quick tests, file sharing, and Web programming. Main features: Crossplatform CGI, SSL, SSI, Digest (MD5) authorization, resumed download, aliases IP-based ACL, Windows service, GET, POST, HEAD, PUT, DELETE methods Small footprint Embeddable with simple and clean API. Source is in single .c file to make things easy
