Questions tagged [nanohttpd]

NanoHttpd is a light-weight HTTP server designed for embedding in other applications. NanoHttpd has been released under a Modified BSD licence.

The first version of NanoHttpd was published in 2003. Originally, its author was looking for:

"a small enough, embeddable and easily modifiable HTTP server that I could just copy and paste into my other Java projects."

Later, another team took the project and fixed a number of bugs, moved the build to maven and pulled out the samples from the runtime JAR to further slim it down.

The two projects pooled resources in early 2013, merging code-bases, to better support the user base and reduce confusion over why two NanoHttpd projects existed.

You can view the project on GitHub: https://github.com/NanoHttpd/nanohttpd.

Using NanoHTTPD in Android
