samuel_trassare@11878 1 Yaws is a HTTP high perfomance 1.1 webserver particularly well suited for
samuel_trassare@11878 2 dynamic-content web applications. Two separate modes of operations are
samuel_trassare@11878 3 supported:
samuel_trassare@11878 4
samuel_trassare@11878 5 Standalone mode where Yaws runs as a regular webserver daemon. This is the default mode.
samuel_trassare@11878 6
samuel_trassare@11878 7 Embedded mode where Yaws runs as an embedded webserver in another Erlang application.
samuel_trassare@11878 8
samuel_trassare@11878 9 Yaws is entirely written in Erlang, and furthermore it is a multithreaded
samuel_trassare@11878 10 webserver where one Erlang lightweight process is used to handle each client.
