g639090 / brainfuck-website Goto Github PK

this is a simple website. it is powered by node.js, but mainly brainfuck. how can you write a website using brainfuck, you ask? well, there's two parts to it:

the server lives in server.js. its a basic node.js tcp server that does nothing but listen for requests. upon a request, it loads and interprets the brainfuck code from server.bf and serves that as a http response.

#### the http response

this is the main part of the site. it lives in server.bf. all it does it construct a http reponse based on the first line of the request (usually looks like GET /something). if it's not GET or if it doesn't point to /, it constructs a 404 response. if everything is ok, though, it returns 200 OK with the site's html content.

i had to keep the html minimal because otherwise it would've been an absolute nightmare to implement it in brainfuck (honestly, even now it is).
