Idea

We often use web frameworks like django, pyramid, and flask. These frameworks are useful, but abstract away much of the low-level HTTP protocol.

However, understanding what HTTP is about is crucial for building safe and performant code.

Resources

Following the guide at "Let's build a webserver", we can learn the basics of HTTP from the ground up.

Activities

  • build a web application without a framework
  • discuss approaches to security

Follow-ups

  • (web)sockets
  • HTTP security
  • other protocols
  • TCP/IP
  • SSL
