This looks really useful! I've just started working on a (mostly pedagogical) little project making a chat server/client in C and started reading through Beej's guide to networking which is great for the fundamentals but I was struggling with deciding how I want to structure my larger code in terms of sockets, clients, multiplexing, etc. I may just end up using your library if it fits (after reading through it some more), else take inspiration from it at the very least.

Thanks!

If your goal is learning yourself, I guess you should really implement your stuff down on the system API level (using sockets and so on) ;)

If, OTOH, you want to get up some simple/small service quickly, I hope "poser" can help. I'm not sure the docs are already "good enough" (it's still a very young project ...) -- there's also a real example using it here: https://github.com/Zirias/tlsc/blob/master/src/bin/tlsc/tlsc...
