Final Project: Building a Multithreaded Web Server

Build a basic HTTP server from scratch demonstrating systems programming concepts.

hello from rust

Project Components

  • TCP connection handling and HTTP request/response parsing
  • Thread pool implementation for concurrent request processing
  • Low-level networking without frameworks

Production note: Use hyper, warp, or axum for real applications. Implementation note: We use threads rather than async/await to focus on concurrency fundamentals, though many async runtimes employ thread pools internally.
