anole

Anole is a Zig Framework for building backends: one server core that will serve REST, WebSockets, WebTransport and gRPC (over HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3), with TLS and auth built in. I have plans to wrap this into a Python and Node library too.

Adding it as a dependency

zig fetch --save=anole https://github.com/xuckless/anole/archive/refs/heads/main.tar.gz

The command above packs a branch and is not pinned to a tag. In production, switch to refs/tags/<tag>.tar.gz and keep the hash that zig fetch --save writes for you.
