Description

Cherokee stands out as a cutting-edge, feature-laden, ultra-fast, and user-friendly open source web server tailored for the demands of the next generation of secure, highly concurrent web applications. Configuration is seamlessly managed through Cherokee-Admin, an elegant and robust web interface that simplifies the setup process. This server is compatible with a wide array of popular web technologies such as FastCGI, SCGI, PHP, uWSGI, SSI, CGI, LDAP, TLS/SSL, HTTP proxying, video streaming, and content caching, among others. It operates efficiently on platforms like Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, and BSD, showcasing remarkable lightweight performance and exceptional stability. One of its standout features is the intuitive cherokee-admin interface, which offers a hassle-free way to configure every aspect of the server without the complexities of text file syntax. This focus on user experience makes Cherokee an attractive option for developers seeking both power and ease of use. Additionally, the ongoing development and community support further enhance its capabilities, ensuring it remains relevant in the evolving landscape of web technologies.

Description

This project's primary aim is to excel in a singular task: effectively serving static web directories. Many existing solutions tend to be overly complicated with features like CGI support and reliance on third-party libraries, or they fall short by lacking essential functionalities such as TLS, virtual hosts, or support for partial content. Quark seeks to strike a balance by focusing solely on static content while still incorporating advanced features typically found in more cumbersome alternatives, all while prioritizing security through methods such as chroot, privilege dropping, and strict parsing without dynamic memory allocation. We maintain that the majority of the web can operate without dynamic components, arguing that the escalating complexity of server-side applications significantly contributes to the web's growing inefficiency. In contemporary practices, the trend leans towards handling everything server-side, from parsing requests to altering files and databases, and generating HTML, often using inappropriate languages like PHP or JavaScript, which leads to significant security vulnerabilities and inefficiencies. By simplifying these processes, we aim to create a more streamlined and secure web environment.
