Show HN: A pure ARM64 Assembly web server, now on Linux with CGI for no reason
A developer has released 'ymawky', a web server written entirely in ARM64 assembly language, now ported to Linux. The project is a minimalist, syscall-only implementation designed for static file serving and CGI support.
Why it matters
It serves as a technical demonstration of low-level programming efficiency and the capabilities of ARM64 architecture in systems software.
This is ymawky (yuh maw kee), a web server written entirely in ARM64 assembly. ymawky is a syscall-only, no libc, fork-per-connection web server written by hand. While originally developed for MacOS, this branch is a fully-featured Linux port.
