17.33 emacs-web-server

“web server running Emacs Lisp handlers.”

Supports HTTP GET and POST requests including URL-encoded parameters, multipart/form data and file uploads. Supports web sockets. Reasonably performant, faster than Elnode [1]. This is a new project without much extended use so there are likely bugs and potentially security issues. That said it consists of little more than HTTP header parsing logic perched atop Emacs’ existing network process primitives, so it should be fairly robust.
