# Snowy

![Snowy Owl](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/caolan/snowy/master/doc/snowy.png)

A more [node][nodejs]-like alternative to [spiffy][spiffy].

Implements a HTTP server for [CHICKEN Scheme][chicken] based on Joyent's http-parser C library (used in Node.js). Borrows some ideas and code from the fantastic [intarweb][intarweb] and [spiffy][spiffy] too. The API is fairly basic, the idea being that nicer response authoring and query string parsing etc. can be layered on top.

**NOTE:** This is a work-in-progress, feel free to experiment and give feedback, but don't put to real use yet!

## Example

```scheme

(use snowy)

(http-listen

 (lambda (req res)

   (update-response res

     code: 200

     body: "Hello, world!\n")))

```
