Provides a zero-dependency Java HTTP/1.1 and Server-Sent Event server for building robust APIs and agentic systems.
Soklet is a lightweight, zero-dependency Java HTTP/1.1 server and route handler designed for crafting RESTful APIs and broadcasting Server-Sent Events (SSE). It functions as a library, offering the core plumbing for 'transactional' REST APIs that exchange small amounts of data, and for tool-backed agentic systems that stream results via SSE. Optionally powered by JEP 444 Virtual Threads, Soklet is also dependency injection friendly, allowing developers to build performant systems without being constrained by a specific framework's technology choices.
