Kindly review this C QuickJS HTTP streaming Web server module
If you want to make it better but aren't interest in that much programming, you may be interested in super minimal http servers like httpserver.h or xhttp (I wrote this!) which match exactly this use case.

Can you rate my skills?
Just today it occurred to me that I could ask you guys!! Can you rate my skills as a programmer? I'd love to have your opinions. I have some of my favourite projects on github. The more noteworthy are: * Noja, an interpreter for a simple programming language I designed * xHTTP, an HTTP 1.1 web server library in a single c file * c2html, a tool to generate an html syntax highlighted version of C code

Question about JS (and high-level languages in general)
This is one example webserver-c, more examples rsenn/qjs-modules.

Any stories/anecdotes of when you moved away from using Node.js/Typescript in the backend to other programming language, did NOT like it, and came back to Node.js again in the backend and became super happy that you came back? Why?
Right now I am working on a single-page source code C server that I compile to a shared library and import into QuickJS https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/tree/quickjs-webserver.

Why does server exit with body over certain length?
Not sure. This is the original code https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c that uses getsockname().

What's a good framework for a real-time data heavy application?
Sure. https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/tree/quickjs-webserver, https://plnkr.co/edit/bK1BfoSgjFUDwkIV?preview, https://plnkr.co/plunk/qX5tepJ38BuDOSZj.

How to parse POST and assign only body (plain text) to char?
Because I am writing a Web server module for QuickJS https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/blob/quickjs-webserver/webserver.c. One use case is sending a command to a local server and streaming the stdout to the browser. I know the text will not be chunked because I am making the request.

Which backend JavaScript framework is the one you use ?
I use the source code for Deno's serveTls https://github.com/guest271314/native-messaging-espeak-ng/blob/deno-server/local_server.js and wrote a Web server module for QuickJS https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/tree/quickjs-webserver.

Create terminal GUI with html?
You can just send the data directly to the server, local server (that you can start and stop from the browser https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/tree/quickjs-webserver) or remote from the terminal or browser.

Kindly review this C QuickJS HTTP streaming Web server module
I finally cobbled together the C source code and QuickJS module heavily relying on existing C source code QuickJS module https://github.com/guest271314/webserver-c/tree/quickjs-webserver.
