Suddenly, it happens ... a burst of productivity and I'm picking up this little old project of mine 😆

https://merecat.troglobit.com/

It's based on Jef Poskanzer's thttpd which I really liked back in the day. I added a few things like https support but never really had the time to make a proper release.

I had this one big feature I wanted to add before I released: the nginx proxy_pass feature, which is sort of why many ppl use nginx at all.

Since I'm all about "dog fooding" I'm running Merecat httpd on my own server, so all my ideas of adding bells and whistles to my server sort of died because I'm so stubborn. Now *that's* a LOT of back-pressure and cognitive blocks! 🤣

I'm probably very unique with this approach to life and engineering 🦄 😭

Hope it'll be a fun weekend project! 😃 I also have another Banana Pi router board to add support for in #infix but that's background work and shouldn't be that hard since all of the device tree and driver work has been done already upstream.
