Don’t roll your own HTTP server

A lot of of today’s APIs are available using HTTP, so it’s no surprise that there are many options available for the software that actually handles the requests.

But if you only need 1% of the features, isn’t it tempting to just write your own HTTP parser? We did, and we wish we didn’t. And now we’ll tell you all about it so you won’t make the same mistakes we did.
