I built FrontBack Scanner to quickly digitize printed photos.

Show HN: SimpleW – Lightweight C# Web Server with optional addonshttps://simplew.net

Hi HN, I’m the author of SimpleW, an MIT-licensed .NET web server for standalone or embedded applications. I shared it here last year ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44797834 ). Since then, I’ve rewritten it from scratch, removing the NetCoreServer dependency. The biggest change is the addon architecture: the core stays small, with no third-party dependencies, and you add what you need (JWT, OpenID Connect, automatic Let’s Encrypt certificates, Swagger, Razor, dependency injection, or logging integrations). Even the network engine is replaceable, with an optional io_uring addon f…
