Description
OpenResty® is a comprehensive web platform that combines an enhanced version of the Nginx core, a refined LuaJIT, numerous well-crafted Lua libraries, a variety of high-quality third-party Nginx modules, and their associated external dependencies. Its primary purpose is to empower developers to effortlessly create scalable web applications, web services, and dynamic web gateways. By utilizing a range of thoughtfully designed Nginx modules—many of which are developed by the OpenResty team—OpenResty® transforms the Nginx server into a robust web application server, allowing web developers to leverage the Lua programming language to script various existing Nginx C modules along with Lua modules. This capability enables the construction of exceptionally high-performance web applications that can manage between 10,000 to over a million connections on a single server. OpenResty® is designed to execute your server-side web application entirely within the Nginx server, effectively utilizing Nginx's event-driven model to facilitate non-blocking I/O with HTTP clients, resulting in improved efficiency and responsiveness for applications. The platform not only enhances performance but also simplifies the development process for complex web solutions.
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.
