hello-world

Hello World Example

This is the simplest possible HyperServe application. It demonstrates the absolute minimum code needed to create a working HTTP server.

What This Example Shows

• Creating a basic HyperServe server
• Handling HTTP requests with a simple handler function
• Returning a text response

Running the Example

go run main.go

The server will start on http://localhost:8080

Testing the Server

In another terminal, use curl to test:

curl http://localhost:8080/
# Output: Hello, World from HyperServe!

Or open http://localhost:8080 in your web browser.

Code Breakdown

// Create a server with default settings
server, err := server.NewServer()

// Register a handler for the root path
server.HandleFunc("/", handler)

// Start the server (blocks until stopped)
server.Run()

That's it! Just three function calls to get a working server.

What's Next?

• Try changing the response message
• Add another route like /about
• Move on to static-files to serve HTML files
