libhv

Like libevent, libev, and libuv, libhv provides event-loop with non-blocking IO and timer, but simpler api and richer protocols.

✨ Features

Cross-platform (Linux, Windows, MacOS, Solaris)
High-performance EventLoop (IO, timer, idle, custom)
TCP/UDP client/server/proxy
TCP supports heartbeat, upstream, unpack, MultiThread-safe write and close, etc.
RUDP support: WITH_KCP
SSL/TLS support: (via WITH_OPENSSL or WITH_GNUTLS or WITH_MBEDTLS)
HTTP client/server (support https http1/x http2 grpc)
HTTP static file service, indexof service, sync/async API handler
HTTP supports RESTful, URI router, keep-alive, chunked, etc.
WebSocket client/server
