## What it is
A collection of five single-header C/C++ libraries (json.h, sched.h, web.h, sdefl.h, sinfl.h) providing a JSON parser, multithreaded task scheduler, lightweight webserver, and deflate compression/decompression. Written in portable C89 for easy drop-in integration.

## Use cases
- parse json in c without allocations
- compress data with deflate in a single header
- add a lightweight webserver to a c application
- run tasks on a thread pool in c89
- embed json parsing in a c++ project without dependencies

## When to choose
- you want zero-dependency, drop-in single-header libraries
- you need maximum compiler portability including C89
- you want to avoid library build/link issues, especially on Windows

## When to avoid
- you need feature-rich, production-hardened JSON or HTTP servers
- you require a maintained license file (repo has no explicit license)
- you need high-performance or standards-complete implementations

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: parser, json, compression, concurrency, http-server
- domain: developer-tools, web-development, parsers
- platform: c, cpp, cross-platform, windows
- tags: header-only, single-header, c89, deflate, task-scheduler, webserver, stb-style, linux, macos
