What we maintain

Two flagship repositories and the supporting work around them. Everything here is public and permissively licensed.

CWIST

C17MIT

C Web development Is Still Trustworthy

A web framework and application server written in plain C. It terminates modern protocols itself, embeds a database layer, and links statically into a single binary you can copy onto a machine.

HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3 (QUIC), WebSocket, WebTransport
Hybrid post-quantum TLS (X25519MLKEM768)
Embedded SQLite ORM, plus RDBMS auto-detection
Reactor and thread-per-connection modes
Builds for native targets and for wasm32-wasip2

libttak

RuntimeBSD 3-Clause

Deterministic systems runtime for C

A low-level runtime focused on predictable memory behaviour, high-throughput concurrency and deterministic resource scheduling. It is what CWIST stands on, and it is usable on its own.

Generational arenas with bulk reclamation
Epoch-based reclamation without global pauses
Detachable memory ownership
Thread pools, futures and a lattice scheduler
Zero-copy IO and a container toolbox
