Overview

Civetweb keeps the balance between functionality and simplicity by a carefully selected list of features:

  • Liberal, commercial-friendly, permissive, MIT license
  • Free from copy-left licenses, like GPL, because you should innovate without restrictions.

  • Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, UNIX, iPhone, Android, Buildroot, and many other platforms.
  • Scripting and database support (Lua scipts, Lua Server Pages, CGI + SQLite database). This provides a ready to go, powerful web development platform in a one single-click executable with no dependencies.
  • Support for CGI, HTTPS/SSL, SSI, HTTP digest (MD5) authorization, Websocket, WEbDAV.
  • Resumed download, URL rewrite, file blacklist, IP-based ACL, Windows service.
  • Download speed limit based on client subnet or URI pattern.
  • Simple and clean embedding API.
  • The source is in single file to make things easy.
  • Embedding examples included.
  • HTTP client capable of sending arbitrary HTTP/HTTPS requests.
