Obtaining and maintaining a certificate is usually such a hassle, but with Certbot and Let’s Encrypt it becomes automated and hassle-free. With just a few simple commands, you can turn on and manage HTTPS. Certbot runs directly on the web server, so make sure to check with your hosting provider first if you are able to use Certbot. -

uvicorn
An ASGI web server, for Python
Uvicorn is an ASGI web server implementation for Python. Until recently Python has lacked a minimal low-level server/application interface for async frameworks. The ASGI specification fills this gap, and means we're now able to start building a common set of tooling usable across all async frameworks. Uvicorn currently supports HTTP/1.1 and WebSockets. -

Feign
Make writing Java http clients easier
Feign is a Java to HTTP client binder that was built primarily to make writing Java http clients easier. Inspired by previous projects Retrofit, JAXRS-2.0 and WebSocket, Feign was designed to reduce the complexity that is often involved in binding the Denominator uniformly to HTTP APIs, no matter the ReSTfulness. Feign works by processing annotations into a templatized request, to which arguments are applied in a straightforward manner before output. While it may only support text-based APIs, it simplifies system aspects dramatically and makes it much easier to unit test your conversions. Feign makes use of great tools like Jersey and CXF for writing Java clients for ReST or SOAP services. It also lets you write your own code on top of http libraries, and connects your code to http APIs with little overhead. -

NanoHTTPD
Tiny, easily embeddable HTTP server in Java
NanoHTTPD is a light-weight HTTP server designed for embedding in other applications, released under a Modified BSD licence. It is being developed at Github and uses Apache Maven for builds & unit testing. Nanolets are like servlets only that they have a extremely low profile. They offer an easy to use system for a more complex server application. We are currently in the process of stabilizing NanoHTTPD from the many pull requests and feature requests that were integrated over the last few months. The next release will come soon, and there will not be any more "intended" major changes before the next release. If you want to use the bleeding edge version, you can clone it from Github, or get it from sonatype.org (see "Maven dependencies / Living on the edge" below). Fully functional HTTP(s) server consisting of one (1) Java file, ready to be customized/inherited for your own project. Simple examples on how to customize NanoHTTPD. -

Laravel Webhook Server
Send webhooks from Laravel apps
A webhook is a mechanism where an application can notify another application that something has happened. Technically, the application sends an HTTP request to that other application. In this blog post, I'd like to introduce you to two packages that we recently released. The first is laravel-webhook-server, which allows you to send webhook requests. The second one is laravel-webhook-client, which makes it easy to receive those webhook request. Webhooks are very useful when a system wants to be notified as soon as something happens in another system. Let's make that a bit less abstract and take a look at a real-world example. laravel-webhook-server allows you to configure and send webhooks in a Laravel app easily. So you'll install this into the app that wants to notify other apps that something has happened. The package has support for signing calls, retrying calls, and backoff strategies. -

CloudPanel
Server control panel to configure and manage a server
CloudPanel CE is an open-source server control panel focused on hosting high-performance web applications with a clean, modern UI. It streamlines provisioning of sites and services—web servers, databases, PHP runtimes, and SSL—so teams can go from a fresh VM to a production-ready stack quickly. The panel emphasizes performance defaults and security best practices, offering features like one-click TLS, user isolation, and straightforward firewall controls. Developers can manage multiple domains, configure vhosts, and switch between runtime versions without juggling command-line scripts. Built-in monitoring and logs help diagnose issues and keep an eye on resource usage as traffic grows. Its design targets cloud environments, making it easy to install on popular providers and scale horizontally as needed. For small businesses and agencies, it reduces operational overhead by turning routine server administration into a few predictable clicks. -

Milkman
An extensible request/response workbench
Milkman is heavily inspired by Postman. But I got sick of all those electron-based applications that need ages and loads of memory to start up. Therefore, this is a JavaFx-based workbench for crafting requests/responses. It is not limited to e.g. HTTP (or more specifically rest) requests. Due to nearly everything being a plugin, other things are possible, like database requests or GRPC, GraphQl, etc. Request-types (e.g. Http Request), request-aspects (e.g. Headers, Body, etc), editors for request aspects (e.g. table-based editors for headers), importers, whatever it is, you can extend it. The core application only handles Workspaces with Environments, Collections, Requests, and their aspects. Several plugins are provided already that extend the core application to be a replacement for postman. Crafting and Executing Http/Rest requests with json highlighting. Support Proxy-server configuration and SSE. -
