# Async HTTP Server
This repository contains an implementation of an async HTTP server that serves files from the current directory. The server is built using CMake and includes testing using `doctest.h`.
## Usage
1. Clone the repository:
```
git clone https://github.com/IvanProgramming/http-server.git
```
2. Build the server using CMake:
```
cd http-server
cmake .
make
```
3. Run the server:
```
./HttpServer
```
The server will start listening on the default port 8080.
4. Open a web browser and enter `http://localhost:8080` to access the server. The server will serve files from the current directory.
## Testing
The server includes testing using `doctest.h`, a C++ testing framework. To run the tests, follow these steps:
1. Build the server as described in the previous section.
2. Run the tests:
```
./HttpServerTests
```
The tests will be executed, and the results will be displayed in the console.
