Overview

Static Web Server (or SWS abbreviated) is a very small and fast production-ready web server suitable to serve static web files or assets.

It is focused on lightness and easy to use principles but keeping high performance and safety powered by The Rust Programming Language.

Written on top of Hyper and Tokio runtime. It provides concurrent and asynchronous networking abilities as well as the latest HTTP/1 - HTTP/2 implementations.

It's cross-platform and available for Linux, macOS, Windows and FreeBSD (x86/x86_64, ARM/ARM64) as well as Docker.
