## What it is
A small, multi-threaded HTTP web server for 64-bit Linux written entirely in amd64 assembly with no external library dependencies. It serves static files from a specified document root with support for HEAD requests, range responses, and common content types.

## Use cases
- serve static files on linux with minimal overhead
- tiny web server with no dependencies
- learn amd64 assembly through a real program
- benchmark lightweight http servers
- serve files from a document root on a minimal system

## When to choose
- you need an extremely small, dependency-free static file server on 64-bit linux
- you want a minimal attack surface for serving static content
- you are studying low-level assembly systems programming

## When to avoid
- you need HTTPS, dynamic content, or full HTTP feature support
- you need a portable server across platforms or architectures
- you want a production server with active security hardening and rich configuration

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: http-server
- domain: web-development, backend, performance
- platform: -
- tags: assembly, amd64, minimalist, static-file-server, no-dependencies, linux
