HolyC WebServer

This is just a fun project where i write a WebServer using HolyC.

The webserver is hosted at holy.null.care

Build & Run

First install the holyc-lang compiler

git clone https://github.com/Jamesbarford/holyc-lang
cd holyc-lang
make
sudo make install

Compile the webserver

hcc main.HC -o server

Run the webserver

./server

Now you can go to localhost:8080 to see the server running.

Next Steps

Here are some of the next steps for the project:

• Find a way to host this on arm64 - Thinking QEMU, just have to figure out how to use it in k3s.
• Implement a HTML module to render HTML to the browser.
• Add route for favicon ✝
• Add better abstractions for the routing and for responses.
• Improve routing so that it routes to actual files, if i want this? the way it works now is kind of nice.
• Add HealthChecks
• Graceful shutdown?
• Implement POST requests
• Add some fun HTML/CSS/JS content
• Add WebSockets for some fun reason

Psalms 91:3-4
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
And from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust:
His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
