A 'C' based web application framework like Tornado or Twisted?

Question

Maybe I am looking in all the wrong places. Or maybe I might just be dumb. But I am just curious. Are there any Web application frameworks available for just the plain old 'C' Language. Like Tornado and Twisted for python? Again, I am just Curious.

UPDATE: After keeping a tag for years, I finally found one: kore.io GitHub: https://github.com/jorisvink/kore

Answer 1

I asked this question 3 years ago. And I have always kept a tag on C-based framework. Now I found one which is more than worthy to mention. kore.io GitHub: https://github.com/jorisvink/kore

Previously, I accepted Aidenn's answer But I am choosing my own as accepted because this is modern and actively maintained.

Answer 2

There aren't many since most web apps are not CPU bound, and involve mutations to variable sized strings, thus not playing to Cs strengths, while hitting C in one of its weakest points.

That being said:

Sorry but Aidenn is wrong. Every scripting language is written in C. It just takes a lot more work. C is a very strong programming language with unlimited possibilities to what you can program.
