libmicrohttpd was started because the author needed an easy way to add a
concurrent HTTP server to other projects. Existing alternatives were either
non-free, not reentrant, standalone, of terrible code quality or a combination
thereof. Do not use libmicrohttpd if you are looking for a standalone http
server, there are many other projects out there that provide that kind of
functionality already. However, if you want to be able to serve simple WWW
pages from within your C or C++ application, check it out.
