Kcgi – minimal CGI and FastCGI library for C/C++

Everyone in this thread is going to call out issues with writing a Web application using C.

Refer to the newest Talk Python podcast where a core CPython developer was told that Python is memory safe and his response was “is it?”.

At some point we need to be more sophisticated about this, our hardware is fundamentally unsafe, anything we build on it is fundamentally unsafe and there are degrees to which things are better or worse and that’s it. All that matters is the love, rigour and care you put into your work.

Proceed as you wish, a backend in C is valid a backend in LISP is valid.

(In this pseudo-resurgence of common sense, somebody ought to at least have a passing memory in mention, of perl, the OG CGI language ...)

All hail TIMTOWTDI! :)

Anyone brave enough to write a webapp in C++?
