I built it because I wanted to able to make websites in Objective-C and I didn't like any of the stuff that existed when I started.

I've learned a lot making it and enjoyed it. I don't know if I would start something like this again. Reading the RFCs and implementing FastCGI and HTTP was a lengthy and tiresome process. I enjoyed it though.

Sure, now you have a bazillion Swift server-side frameworks, but at the time Swift didn't even exist. Call me a dinosaur, but I like ObjC and the Cocoa stack and I think it deserves its place on the web.
