Meira

Meira is a web framework written in Nim.

It is a modified version of Mummy, a multi-threaded HTTP 1.1 and WebSocket server by Ryan Oldenburg, and also includes pieces of code from the Jester web framework that have been adapted to work with Mummy.

The word Meira (ミイラ) means "mummy" in Japanese.

This is currently a hobby project under development, and is not production-ready.
