# Castor
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Castor is a lightweight but full-featured gemini server, focused on ease of setup and use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Servers are configured using `Castorfile`s, analogous to Caddyfiles or nginx configurations. Various handlers can be defined:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- static file serving
|
||
|
|
- hard-coded responses
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Castorfiles also support client cert requirements; lists of client certificate hashes can be provided for authentication, or simply as session-management (hashes being passed off to a backend server for mapping to a user identity).
