Mongoose is a networking library for C/C++. It implements event-driven non-blocking APIs for TCP, UDP, HTTP, WebSocket, MQTT. It is designed for connecting devices and bringing them online. On the market since 2004, used by vast number of open source and commercial products - it even runs on the International Space Station! Mongoose makes embedded network programming fast, robust, and easy. Cross-platform, works on Linux/UNIX, MacOS, Windows, Android, FreeRTOS, etc. Supported embedded architectures: ESP32, NRF52, STM32, NXP, and more. Built-in protocols: plain TCP/UDP, HTTP, MQTT, Websocket. SSL/TLS support: mbedTLS, OpenSSL or custom (via API).
