Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in haskell. for more information or to download the latest version, you can visit the snap project website at .

the snap http server is a high performance, epoll-enabled, iteratee-based web server library written in haskell. together with the @snap-core@ library upon which it depends, it provides a clean and efficient haskell programming interface to the http protocol.

higher-level facilities for building web applications (like user/session management, component interfaces, data modeling, etc.) are planned but not yet implemented, so this release will mostly be of interest for those who:

o need a fast and minimal http api at roughly the same level of abstraction as java servlets, or

o are interested in contributing to the snap framework project.

this package contains the documentation files.
