JavaScript
JavaScript
Mako Server
Mako Server

JavaScript is most known as the scripting language for Web pages, but used in many non-browser environments as well such as node.js or Apache CouchDB. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic,and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

It provides a super compact and efficient Lua web framework and non-blocking asynchronous sockets in a tiny ready to run application server package. The server includes everything you need: integrated database, SMTP, HTTP client/server, IoT protocols such as MQTT, industrial protocols such as Modbus, and more. It is ideal for memory constrained embedded Linux systems.
