Httplistener has two implementations. Managed (cross platform) and http.sys (windows only).

It’s “ok”. You can’t do things like re use contexts but it’s perfectly fine for throwing small backends together when you don’t want to force users to install asp runtime. I did a minimal web api around it to make life easier going between it and kestrel.

If kestrel was nugettable without the asp runtime it would be a dream but it requires a lot of that aspcore infra so it is what it is.
