<div>Note that I very much like Yaws. I've
been using it for a number of years and I've never ran into any
operational issues with it. Thus, I'm very thankful to Claes and
all contributors to the project. And yes, it's very easy to
complain while you don't do anything about it, but since I was
asked... The issues dealing with documentation I've run into
could be summarized in Yaws having many great features available,
but in many cases the documentation doesn't go far enough
explaining how to go about using them. That probably sums it up.
The website has bits and pieces for you to figure out, which is
fine if you have the time, but it's not exactly an example of good
documentation in 2016. Your best overall bet is the manual
(yaws.pdf) that tries to be complete, but most explanations are
simple and limited. Many chapters are simply made up of one page,
which is not exactly thorough. I mean, take a look and judge for
yourself. I wish I would have written this a few years ago when I
was writing this web app, as I would have had better examples of
the issues I ran into.<div><div><br>

<div>For REST, my initial recommendation is Yaws (<a href="http://yaws.hyber.org/" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://yaws.hyber.org/" target="_blank">http://yaws.hyber.org/</a>), as it's
very easy to use and pretty solid solution, but the
documentation for it is simply terrible and I mean
really, really terrible. Hence, you probably would
have an easier time with Cowboy.<br>

<div>If you have suggestions for documentation improvements
please let me know -- I'd like to know details of why you
think the docs are "really, really terrible" given that I
think they're pretty reasonable, and I know for a fact we
keep them up to date. Pull requests are also welcomed.</div>

<pre>Its a toolkit from which you can build a server, but its not a server
in the way something like YAWS is. Quickest from zero to doing things
is probably YAWS or Cowboy.
Most of my experience has been client-side things using mochi libs or
doing simplish web faces with YAWS for systems that have much richer
native clients already -- so my web experience in this regard is
(deliberately) limited.
