teepeedee2 is a webapplication framework for dynamic webpages. I made | ||
it to see whether it was possible to write a high performance | ||
application in Lisp. There were many obstacles in the way. | ||
|
||
This webserver is not finished and I wrote it to learn and experiment | ||
with Common Lisp. There is a lot to be tidied up, now I know the | ||
language better. If you have any interest in using it, please get in | ||
touch with me, John Fremlin <john@freml.in>, or | ||
http://john.fremlin.org/contact.html | ||
|
||
It is faster than all(?) other web application frameworks for serving | ||
small dynamic webpages. Please let me know if you have a case where | ||
another framework is faster! | ||
|
||
You can see benchmarks comparing it to other web application platforms | ||
like PHP and Rails in this presentation | ||
http://tlug.jp/meetings/2008/11/serving-dynamic-webpages-in-less-then-a-millisecond_john-fremlin_handout.pdf | ||
|
||
You can see an example of it running a blog on http://john.freml.in. | ||
|
||
It is designed so that small fragments of JavaScript can be delivered | ||
at low overhead to many clients. | ||
|
||
However, it also includes general support libraries for quickly | ||
generating XML/HTML (tpd2.ml2), for doing fast networking in a | ||
continuation passing style, i.e. fast event driven userspace | ||
threading (tpd2.io). | ||
|
||
For an example application, loaded by default, see the src/game directory. | ||
|
||
The addons/ directory contains a few of the other projects (but not | ||
all) that teepeedee2 depends on. They are released under their own | ||
licence. | ||
|
||
The licence for most of tpd2 is the Lisp LGPL. However, I take no profit | ||
from making this, and request that if you make an application with it, | ||
please release the source so others can learn from it. Don't be | ||
selfish! | ||
|
||
It runs on SBCL and ClozureCL. It shouldn't be hard to port to other | ||
modern Common Lisps. |
