Mighttpd2 (called mighty) is a simple but practical HTTP server written in Haskell. It handles static files and CGI scripts. It also provides a feature of reverse proxy and URL rewriting with HTTP redirect.
Mighttpd2 is now implemented as a WAI application using the high-performance HTTP engine, "Warp". To httperf Ping-Pong benchmark, the performance of Mighttpd2 is similar to that of nginx.
This domain "Mew.org" is provided with Mighttpd2.
Here are features provided by Mighty:
- Redirection and language negotiation
- CGI: GET and POST
- Index of files in a directory should be statically created by the "mighty-mkindex" command.
- Reverse proxy
