8 years ago If anyone has done this already, I would strongly encourage and welcome a Pull Request.
Support for mininalistic environments such as embedded devices & systems is very much inline with linux-dash's philosophy and purpose.

8 years ago @pauldotknopf I wanted to update you on some progress: Tonight I have added a C server (using mongoose) which supports websockets.
It is currently on the v2.0 dev branch and will be released with Linux Dash v2.0. https://github.com/afaqurk/linux-dash/commit/a41da7333ad30c650ea47924bcc3cab25ca54e54
You can see the compiled binary (fully functional with source on that branch) here: https://github.com/afaqurk/linux-dash/commit/9f8b4ba374c35beddf1e9d4092c9ac08cdd11b1c
The v2.0 branch is currently stable but not guaranteed to be so always. Feel free to use it at your own discretion.
If you have any suggestions or improvements for that C server, please do let me know.

8 years ago Another added benefit coming with linux-dash v2.0: reduced size (on disk). Currently, the entire distribution is hovering around 300kb. As opposed to ~1MB for linux-dash 1.x
Good news for low-resource environments like embedded devices.

8 years ago This has been fully implemented in v2.0 release branch. You can see the preview here: https://github.com/linux-dash/linux-dash and here: https://linux-dash.github.io
I will be marking this issue closed soon.
Does somebody have a web server written in pure C/C++? I'd like to add this to my embedded device for testing/development, but I don't want to add a huge dependency, such as node/php/apache.
