[![purescript-httpure on Pursuit](https://pursuit.purescript.org/packages/purescript-httpure/badge)](https://pursuit.purescript.org/packages/purescript-httpure)

A purescript HTTP server framework.

HTTPure is:

- Well-tested (see our [tests](./test))
- Well-documented (see our [documentation](./docs))
- Built to take advantage of PureScript language features for flexible and
  extensible routing
- Pure (no `set`, `get`, `use`, etc)

## Status

This project is currently fairly stable, but has not reached it's 1.0 release
yet. You can track what's left before it gets there by looking at our
[roadmap](https://github.com/cprussin/purescript-httpure/projects). The API
signatures are _mostly_ stable, but are subject to change before the 1.0 release
if there's a good reason to change them.

If you'd like to help us get to 1.0 quicker, please contribute! To get started,
check our [contributing guide](Contributing.md).
