For Developers

Overview

Mongoose is an embedded HTTP and WebSocket library, which can turn anything into a web server in just 5 minutes by adding few lines of C/C++ code. Mongoose embedded web server is used to serve Web GUI on embedded devices, implement RESTful services, RPC frameworks (e.g. JSON-RPC), handle telemetry data exchange, and perform many other tasks in various different industries including aerospace, manufacturing, finance, research, automotive, gaming, IT. Mongoose allows you to concentrate on the logic, rather than having to focus on network programming complexity. This saves development time and ultimately keeps your budget tight.
