multithreaded-server-in-c

This is a simple multithreaded web server written in C. It serves static HTML pages from the "files" directory.

Features:

• Multithreaded, thread-safe. No leaks (as per Valgrind at least).
• Has static routing and redirect functionalities.
• Has a thread pool (reuses threads) instead of forking or creating threads on the fly.
• Uses condition variables instead of busy waiting.

Limitations:

• It does not fully implement HTTP 1.1, but it can communicate with browsers.
• It should not be used in production, as I haven't checked it for security beyond the basic requirements

Getting it Running:

Compile and run the server:

gcc queue.c hash_table.c server.c -o server
./server

Then write in your browser:

localhost:4444
