Top 14 JavaScript HTTP Server Projects
-
pwndrop
Self-deployable file hosting service for red teamers, allowing to easily upload and share payloads over HTTP and WebDAV.
I came across https://github.com/kgretzky/pwndrop a few weeks ago and really like it. It's really nice for doing (100% legal, don't @me) pentesting. I really like the hidden menu feature + the facade files. I went to the GitHub to take a look at the source code and noticed that it hasn't received a commit since 2020. Assuming that this project is no longer maintained, are there any other alternatives with red teaming in mind?

hyper-express
High performance Node.js webserver with a simple-to-use API powered by uWebsockets.js under the hood.
Project mention: Need help in understanding why we need classes in JS(node specifically). | reddit.com/r/node | 2022-10-16Are classes absolutely needed in JS? No, not really. Are classes really nice and significantly improve the readability/flow of your code in some cases? Sure, an example could be a webserver I wrote: https://github.com/kartikk221/hyper-express

web-benchmarks
A set of HTTP server benchmarks for Golang, node.js and Python with proper CPU utilization and database connection pooling.
Project mention: Possibly stupid question, is java the right language for low latency and high throughput web servers? | reddit.com/r/java | 2022-11-03If your team is familiar with Node, you can use it to write high performance servers that perform at almost the same level as Go or Java: https://github.com/nDmitry/web-benchmarks. It’d probably be worth learning how to benchmark and profile your current services too. It will require choosing your libraries carefully for high performance and being thoughtful about loops and allocations, but you would need to do that with Go and Java too.

Project mention: One-click file uploader WITHOUT link to share? (just place the file on the server) | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 2022-08-02
Something like this

Project mention: I wrote a simple webapp to allow users on my LAN to set the VPN for their current device right through their browser | reddit.com/r/homelab | 2022-04-26
I did something similar but for openvpn: https://github.com/m1k1o/ovpn-nodejs

Thanks! The game here is written in Inform7, and it was so difficult to make progress that it took me three years on and off to finish the game. So if you do it that way, beware :)
