Melon is a generic cross-platform C library (C99) bundling algorithms, data structures, functional components (memory pool, thread pool, event mechanism, HTTP/WebSocket, crypto, JSON), multi-process/multi-thread frameworks, and the Melang scripting language interpreter. It supports AOP-style function templates and compiles for Linux, macOS, Windows (msys2/msvc), and WebAssembly.

Use cases

  • c library with memory pool and thread pool
  • embed a scripting language interpreter in a c application
  • multi-process server framework in c
  • c data structures like red-black tree and fibonacci heap
  • aes md5 sha base64 in c without dependencies
  • websocket and http handling in c
  • aspect-oriented programming in c
  • compile c library to webassembly

When to choose

  • writing C/C++ applications on Linux/macOS/Windows that need common components without many dependencies
  • you want an embedded scripting language or AOP-style function callbacks in C
  • you need a batteries-included C toolkit covering data structures, crypto, JSON, and concurrency

When to avoid

  • you need a single-purpose, minimal library rather than a large monolithic one
  • you require full framework features (multi-process/multi-thread models) on Windows or MSVC
  • your project is in a higher-level language with rich ecosystems
