Nice effort but this isn’t interesting at all. You skipped the most interesting part; parsing http. This is beejs networking tutorial with writing a file to a socket.

Harsh? Maybe, but you’re posting this to a site with some of the most talented developers on planet. Real talk, sorry.

I swear that the only thing that draws people to this industry is the desire to escape their home village. It certainly isn't the quality of conversation with like-minded tinkerers. It's just losers like you who think a big paycheck for playing with Jira means you're the smartest boy in the world. God help us.

Shitty reply and this critique isn't helpful at all. You assumed the most interesting part; the thing you personally want.

Harsh? Maybe, but you're posting this to a site with some of the most jaded developers on the planet. Not sorry.

Obviously you aren't one of them with an attitude like that.

Let's see throwaway1492's code

Even simple implementations serve as valuable learning exercises, and proper HTTP parsing could be the natural next step in the author's learning journey.

nah this is pretty cool

Parsing HTTP is entirely unnecessary. That's the web client's job.

Do you mean parsing HTML? HTTP is the protocol they use to communicate, so both client and server must speak it. Or did I misunderstand you?
