web-server

A very simple implementation of a multi-thread static webserver using HTTP over TCP. The main goal here is to practice the learnings from the book The Rust Programing Language, chapter 20: Final Project: Building a Multithreaded Web Server.

Getting Started

You'll need to install Rust and Cargo (rust package manager)

• Cargo (Linux and MacOS)

$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

Running

1. Clone the repo
2. Run the server

cargo run

Usage

1. Open your browser
2. Use one tab to access http://127.0.0.1:7878/sleep, which will open a slow page (10 seconds sleeping thread).
3. Use another tab to access http://127.0.0.1:7878/, which will open a quick page (no sleep).
