Channel Version Published

A laughably-small HTTP server

The only thing uhttpd is good for, is serving static content. It has no fancy bells, or whistles, like virtual host, or CGI support. All it does is host static files out of a directory for you.

If you are looking for the [uhttpd][1] that ships with OpenWRT, you are in the wrong place.
