It provides [concurrent and asynchronous networking abilities](https://rust-lang.github.io/async-book/01_getting_started/02_why_async.html) 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.!!! tip "Tips"- If you're looking for `v1` please go to [1.x branch](https://github.com/static-web-server/static-web-server/tree/1.x).- If you want to migrate from `v1` to `v2` please take a look at [v2.0.0](https://github.com/static-web-server/static-web-server/releases/tag/v2.0.0) release notes.## Features- Built with [Rust](https://rust-lang.org) which is focused on [safety, speed and concurrency](https://kornel.ski/rust-c-speed).- Memory safe and very reduced CPU and RAM overhead.- Blazing fast static files-serving and asynchronous powered by latest [Hyper](https://github.com/hyperium/hyper/), [Tokio](https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio) and a set of [awesome crates](https://github.com/static-web-server/static-web-server/blob/master/Cargo.toml).- Single __4MB__ (uncompressed) and fully static binary with no dependencies ([Musl libc](https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/rust-2018/platform-and-target-support/musl-support-for-fully-static-binaries.html)). Suitable for running on [any Linux distro](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_distribution) or [Docker container](https://hub.docker.com/r/joseluisq/static-web-server/tags).- Optional GZip, Deflate or Brotli compression for text-based web files only.- Compression on-demand via [Accept-Encoding](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Accept-Encoding) header.- [Partial Content Delivery](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_serving) support for byte-serving of large files.- Optional [Cache-Control](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cache-Control) headers for assets.- [Termination signal](https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Termination-Signals.html) handling with [graceful shutdown](https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/containers-kubernetes/kubernetes-best-practices-terminating-with-grace) ability and grace period.- [HTTP/2](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540) and TLS support.- [Security headers](https://web.dev/security-headers/) for HTTP/2 by default.- [HEAD](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-4.3.2) responses.- Lightweight and configurable logging via [tracing](https://github.com/tokio-rs/tracing) crate.- Customizable number of worker threads.- Optional directory listing.- [CORS](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS) support.- Basic HTTP Authentication.- Customizable HTTP response headers for specific file requests via glob patterns.- Fallback pages for 404 errors, useful for Single-page applications.- Run the server as a [Windows Service](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2003/cc783643(v=ws.10)).- Configurable using CLI arguments, environment variables or a TOML file.- Default and custom error pages.- Custom URL rewrites via glob patterns.- Custom URL redirects via glob patterns.- Support for serving pre-compressed (Gzip/Brotli) files.- First-class [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-started/overview/) support. [Scratch](https://hub.docker.com/_/scratch) and latest [Alpine Linux](https://hub.docker.com/_/alpine) Docker images.- Ability to accept a socket listener as a file descriptor for use in sandboxing and on-demand applications (E.g [systemd](http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activation.html)).- Cross-platform. Pre-compiled binaries for Linux, macOS, Windows and FreeBSD (`x86`,`x86_64`,`ARM`,`ARM64`).## Benchmarks<img title="SWS - Benchmarks 2022" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/static-web-server/static-web-server/master/benchmark/sws_benchmarks.png" width="860">For more details see [benchmark/BENCHMARKS.md](https://github.com/static-web-server/static-web-server/blob/master/benchmark/BENCHMARKS.md).
