<h2>About</h2>
<p><strong>Plop</strong> is a framework for prototyping request-response protocols and servers.
<p>It was born in a heat of a moment, when I was angry at nginx for reasons I do not recall anymore. It started as a
very basic HTTP/1.1 server, and quickly became a playground I used to test tools, approaches, and standards. After some
time I decided to make a full-pledged piece of software out of it. This is where we are at now.
<h2>Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>Extensible with <a href="https://www.lua.org/">Lua</a> 5.3.
<li>Coroutine-based connections handling.
<li>Small codebase focused on documenting itself.
</ul>
<h2>Usage</h2>
<p><strong>plop</strong> is currently only available through its <a href="https://git.ignore.pl/plop">git
repository</a>. The only dependency is Lua 5.3.
<p>To build, install, and run <strong>plop</strong> follow this simple instruction:
<pre>
$ git clone https://git.ignore.pl/plop
$ cd plop
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ plop
</pre>
<p>For more information consult <strong>plop</strong>(1) manual page, sources, or the output of <code>plop -h</code>.
