HTTPServer

A multi-threaded HTTP server written from scratch in Java — no frameworks, no dependencies.

What it is

Implements a basic HTTP/1.1 server with:

• Server.java — Accepts connections on a configurable port, spawns a new ClientThread per request, handles graceful shutdown
• HTTPRequest.java — Parses raw HTTP headers, request method, URL, and multipart form data
• ResponseFactory.java — Routes GET and POST requests, returning proper HTTP status codes (200, 302, 403, 404, 500)
• Response objects organized by status with clean separation of concerns

Supports static file serving, file upload via POST, and a hardcoded redirect example.

Tech
