A Modern HTTP library for Rust.
Get started by looking over the guides.
hyper is a fast, modern HTTP implementation written in and for Rust. It is a low-level typesafe abstraction over raw HTTP, providing an elegant layer over "stringly-typed" HTTP.
hyper offers both an HTTP client and server which can be used to drive complex web applications written entirely in Rust.
hyper makes use of "async IO" (non-blocking sockets) via the Tokio and Futures libraries.
See the Hello World example for a toy server using hyper.
Be aware that hyper is still actively evolving towards 1.0, and is likely to experience breaking changes before stabilising. You can also see the 1.0 issue milestone.
