MyPoorWebServer is a C/C++-based web server project that demonstrates fundamental HTTP server implementation principles drawn from classic network programming literature and high-performance server design books. The repository contains source code that implements a basic HTTP server, intended to be compiled and run from the command line, exposing introductory web server functionality such as serving static HTML files and handling simple POST requests. It was originally developed as a resume project to demonstrate understanding of TCP/IP network programming, socket handling, and server lifecycle management, and so it reflects a hands-on approach to building server software from scratch rather than relying on frameworks. The project includes build instructions, example pages to host, and documentation encouraging readers to read reference texts before diving in.

  • C/C++ implementation of a basic HTTP server
  • Demonstrates TCP/IP network programming
  • Handles GET and POST requests
  • Standalone build and run instructions
