High performance HTTP 1.1 webserver written in Erlang

Yaws is a high performance HTTP 1.1 webserver written in Erlang. It is a multithreaded webserver where one Erlang light weight process is used to handle each client. Two separate modes of operation are supported.

Standalone mode where Yaws runs as a regular webserver daemon. This is the default mode.

Embedded mode where Yaws runs as an embedded webserver in another Erlang application.

The main advantages of yaws compared to other Web technologies are performance and elegance. The performance comes from the underlying Erlang system and its ability to handle concurrent processes in an efficent way. Its elegance comes from Erlang as well. Web applications don't have to be written in ugly adhoc languages.
