http-server

A simple HTTP server and client built in C using sockets

Overview

This project implements a minimal HTTP server that can serve static HTML files to a client over TCP.
It includes both a server (listens for requests and serves files) and a client (which sends an HTTP GET request and prints the response).

Prerequisites

• C compiler (e.g., gcc or clang)
• Make

Install & Run

git clone https://github.com/chanr335/http-server.git
cd http-server
