Libwebsockets is a simple-to-use, MIT-license, pure C library providing client and server
|
2020-03-04 10:01:28 +00:00
|
|
|
for **http/1**, **http/2**, **websockets**, **MQTT** and other protocols in a security-minded,
|
2018-11-16 09:10:41 +08:00
|
|
|
lightweight, configurable, scalable and flexible way. It's easy to build and
|
|
|
|
|
cross-build via cmake and is suitable for tasks from embedded RTOS through mass
|
|
|
|
|
cloud serving.

It supports a lot of lightweight ancilliary implementations for things like JSON,
|
|
|
|
|
CBOR, JOSE, COSE, and supports OpenSSL and MbedTLS v2 and v3 out of the box for everything.
|
|
|
|
|
It's very gregarious when it comes to event loop sharing, supporting libuv, libevent, libev,
|
|
|
|
|
sdevent, glib and uloop, as well as custom event libs.
