Lightweight, cross-platform networking library that lets you get to work fast.

Mongoose Lite
Embedded Web Server


For Developers

Overview

Mongoose Lite is a lightweight HTTP library, which can turn anything into a web server fast by simply adding a few lines C/C++ code. Concentrate on what matters; the logic behind your application, not the network programme complexity.

The implementation was three basic steps: 1) take the example server code, 2) copy it to your program, 3) tweak the responses a bit and you are done!

Open Source Philosophy

Here, at Cesanta we believe in open source software for a reason. Working with the Internet of Things and embedded software, we believe that as many developers as possible should have access to this cutting edge technology to learn, integrate and make devices better.

As developers ourselves we appreciate easy access to code and the flexibility of testing a full product before purchasing a commercial license.
