Mewt Server (or simply Mewt), is a minimalist and efficient webserver that render templates.
You want to create a landing page, a corporate website, something mostly static but you want to be able to update the content and the text efficiently?
But you don't want the complexity and the resources cost of a framework or CMS?
Mewt is made for YOU!
Mewt allows you to serve:
- Static files
- Pages generated with templates and variables
- Proxied APIs
Also, it handles for you redirects and URL rewriting.
