Description-en: fast and very simple Ruby web server
Thin is a Ruby web server that glues together 3 of the best Ruby
libraries in web history:
* the Mongrel parser, the root of Mongrel's speed and security
* Event Machine, a network I/O library with extremely high
scalability, performance and stability
* Rack, a minimal interface between webservers and Ruby frameworks
.
Which makes it, with all humility, the most secure, stable, fast and
extensible Ruby web server bundled in an easy to use package for your own
pleasure.
