Multithreaded web server in Rust

This project is a practical implementation of a multithreaded web server built with Rust programming language.

The server leverages Rust’s powerful concurrency features, spawning multiple threads to handle incoming requests simultaneously. This approach significantly boosts performance, allowing the server to manage high loads with ease. While it’s a basic implementation, it serves as a solid foundation for understanding low-level networking concepts and Rust’s unique approach to safe concurrency.

It was a lot of fun learning about Rust this way which prompted me to build the HTMX + Rust Todo App project.

While building this server, I learned about:

  • Creating a basic web server from scratch
  • How HTTP request and responses work under the hood
  • Rust’s multithreading
