Unicorn - Rack HTTP server for fast clients and Unix

Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Load balancing is done entirely by the operating system kernel. Requests never pile up behind a busy worker process. Does not care if your application is thread-safe or not, workers all run within their own isolated address space and only serve one client at a time for maximum robustness.

devd - A local webserver for developers

Go to the releases page, download the package for your OS, and copy the binary to somewhere on your PATH.Modd is devd's sister project - a dev tool that runs commands and manages daemons in response to filesystem changes. Devd can be used with modd to rebuild a project and reload the browser when filesystem changes are detected.

aiohttp - Async http client/server framework (asyncio)

For this release we completely refactored low-level implementation of http handling. Finally uvloop gives performance improvement. Overall performance improvement should be around 70-90% compared to 1.x version.We took opportunity to refactor long standing api design problems across whole package. Client exceptions handling has been cleaned up and now much more straight forward. Client payload management simplified and allows to extend with any custom type. Client connection pool implementation has been redesigned as well, now there is no need for actively releasing response objects, aiohttp handles connection release automatically.

Proxygen - Facebook's C++ HTTP framework

This project comprises the core C++ HTTP abstractions used at Facebook. Internally, it is used as the basis for building many HTTP servers, proxies, and clients. This release focuses on the common HTTP abstractions and our simple HTTPServer framework. Future releases will provide simple client APIs as well. The framework supports HTTP/1.1, SPDY/3, SPDY/3.1, and HTTP/2. The goal is to provide a simple, performant, and modern C++ HTTP library.

akka-http - The Streaming-first HTTP server/module of Akka

The Akka HTTP modules implement a full server- and client-side HTTP stack on top of akka-actor and akka-stream. It's not a web-framework but rather a more general toolkit for providing and consuming HTTP-based services. While interaction with a browser is of course also in scope it is not the primary focus of Akka HTTP. Akka HTTP follows a rather open design and many times offers several different API levels for "doing the same thing". You get to pick the API level of abstraction that is most suitable for your application. This means that, if you have trouble achieving something using a high-level API, there's a good chance that you can get it done with a low-level API, which offers more flexibility but might require you to write more application code.

webmachine-ruby - Webmachine, the HTTP toolkit (in Ruby)

webmachine-ruby is a port of Webmachine, which is written in Erlang. The goal of both projects is to expose interesting parts of the HTTP protocol to your application in a declarative way. This means that you are less concerned with the procedures involved in handling requests directly and more with describing facts about the resources that make up your application. Webmachine is not a web framework per se, but more of a toolkit for building HTTP-friendly applications. For example, it does not provide a templating engine or a persistence layer; those choices are up to you. Below we go through some examples of how to do basic things with webmachine-ruby.

beast - HTTP and WebSocket built on Boost.Asio in C++11

Beast is a C++ header-only library serving as a foundation for writing interoperable networking libraries by providing low-level HTTP/1, WebSocket, and networking protocol vocabulary types and algorithms using the consistent asynchronous model of Boost.Asio. Symmetry: Algorithms are role-agnostic; build clients, servers, or both.
