About

Kore (https://kore.io) is an ultra fast web server / framework for web applications developed in C. It provides a set of API functions you can use to build a dynamic library which is loaded into Kore directly.

Kore is an ideal candidate for developing robust, fast and safe web applications.

  • Load your web application as a precompiled C library
  • Modules can be reloaded on-the-fly, even while serving content

Building Kore

Requirements

  • libz

  • DEBUG=1 (enables use of -d for debug)
  • BENCHMARK=1 (compiles Kore without OpenSSL)
  • KORE_PEDANTIC_MALLOC=1 (zero all allocated memory)

Example libraries

You can find example libraries under examples/.

The examples contain a README file with instructions on how to build or use them.

I apologize for unclear examples or documentation, I am working on improving those.
