In plain words

Nchan is a pub/sub server built as an Nginx module that enables real-time message publishing and subscription capabilities. It allows developers to add publish-subscribe functionality directly within Nginx, making it suitable for applications requiring live data streams, notifications, or real-time communication. The module integrates with Nginx's architecture to handle message distribution between publishers and subscribers efficiently.

    hi there! i’ve been working on a project called Narwhal, and I wanted to share it with the community to get some valuable feedback. what is it? Narwhal is a lightweight Pub/Sub server and protocol designed specifically for edge applications. while there are great tools out there like NATS or MQTT, i wanted to build something that prioritizes customization and extensibility. my goal was to create a system where developers can easily adapt the routing logic or message handling pipeline to fit specific edge use cases, without fighting the server's defaults. why Rust? i chose Rust because i…
