Tech stack & purpose

MochiWeb is an Erlang library for building lightweight HTTP servers. The project provides a simple API for creating HTTP server applications and includes an example demonstrating how to implement Amazon-style HMAC authentication for APIs, covering both server-side request authorization and client-side request signing with public/private key pairs. The library is designed to be lightweight, fast, and suitable for resource-constrained environments, and it requires Erlang OTP to be installed.
