# cws
A simple Web Server written in C (learning purposes), it works only on Linux systems.

## Requirements
- [meson](https://mesonbuild.com/index.html)
- [doxygen](https://www.doxygen.nl/)
  - Optional, just to build the docs

## How to build
```bash
$ meson setup build
$ cd build
$ meson compile
```
And then run `cws`!

## Docs
```bash
$ git submodule update --init # inside the cws directory
$ doxygen
```
And then open the `docs/html/index.html`.
