Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Nginx Unit – Universal web app server
This is great to read! Thanks for all the great input!
I check the comments next week and make sure to address the issues / ideas mentioned. If you don’t mind feel free to drop a comment here as well with your ideas / needs. https://github.com/nginx/unit/issues/945
I will work on a compression between Nginx and Unit to close this gap in our documentation.

h5ai gallery alternative for nginx
You could try running h5ai with NGINX UNIT.

Which reverse proxy are you using?
nginx, but nginx-unit looks very interesting. I might switch a few docker containers to use it before trying to use it natively.

Easy to use docker-container for your applications
Try Nginx Unit to get away from the php-fpm complexity. It runs on http by default so it's super easy to spin up and access by itself (no need for an extra http server) or behind another http gateway as a simple proxy.

Nginx 1.26.0 Stable Released
Yeah, unless I'm looking at it wrong, there doesn't seem to be any meaningful difference between 1.25.5 and 1.26.0:

How to securely reverse-proxy ASP.NET Core web apps
However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:
- Ask HN: Is nginx.org (the domain-name itself) gone?

Freenginx: Core Nginx Developer Announces Fork of Popular Web Server
> I actually don't understand why I am seeing arguments like this all the time.
Have a look at:
https://github.com/nginx/nginx/blob/master/src/http/modules/...
It's got the whole checklist: nginx idiosyncratic module system, inline parsing, custom utf conversion, buffer preallocation and adjustments, linked lists, comments about side effects of custom allocator, and probably other things.
It's not easy to deal with source like that and any serious improvement to that area would effectively be a rewrite anyway.
Since anything doing work in nginx is a module anyway, it wouldn't even have to be a full rewrite in one go.

The Internet is Maintained by 1 Software Developer
According to this article, nGinx is being used to serve 34% of all websites in the world. I checked out who's contributing to nGinx, and just like I thought, the project has 8,208 commits, and 5,366 of those commits was made by 2 software developers; igorsoev and mdounin.

Web CGI programs aren't particularly slow these days
Apache’s mod_fastcgi’s last commit was 2 weeks ago:
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/trunk/
It’s a fork of what you linked (and was more popular afaik back when fastcgi was state of the art, and apache was the undisputed champion of web servers).
These days, nginx has more market share than apache, and its fastcgi module is one of the more recently updated ones in its source tree (5 months vs multiple years):
https://github.com/nginx/nginx/tree/master/src/http/modules
If I was going to build an embedded web server, I’d start with nostd rust, probably with though axum + tokio, since thats already memory safe-ish.
If I needed fastcgi for some reason (dynamically loadable endpoints, or os-level isolation), there are at least four implementations of fastcgi for it. No idea if any are decent though.

Five Apache projects you probably didn't know about
APISIX is an API Gateway. It builds upon OpenResty, a Lua layer built on top of the famous nginx reverse-proxy. APISIX adds abstractions to the mix, e.g., Route, Service, Upstream, and offers a plugin-based architecture.
What are some alternatives?
uvicorn - An ASGI web server, for Python. 🦄
Caddy - Fast and extensible multi-platform HTTP/1-2-3 web server with automatic HTTPS
envoy - Cloud-native high-performance edge/middle/service proxy
Nginx Proxy Manager - Docker container for managing Nginx proxy hosts with a simple, powerful interface
Squid - Squid Web Proxy Cache

Hiawatha - Hiawatha is an open source webserver with security, easy to use and lightweight as the three key features. Hiawatha supports among others (Fast)CGI, IPv6, URL rewriting and reverse proxy. It has security features no other webserver has, like blocking SQL injections, XSS and CSRF attacks and exploit attempts. The built-in monitoring tool makes it perfect for large scale deployments.
