Building a Multithreaded Web Server in Rust
The Rust Programming Language ๐
In this final chapter of "The Rust Programming Language" book, we will build a multithreaded web server. The project will demonstrate concepts covered in previous chapters and recap earlier lessons. The plan for building the web server includes learning about TCP and HTTP, listening for TCP connections, parsing HTTP requests, creating proper HTTP responses, and improving server throughput with a thread pool. Although there are more complete web server and thread pool implementations available on crates.io, we will build our own to help you learn the general ideas and techniques behind them.
