Rust Simple File Server

This project was built for the StackUp Rust Bounty Challenge — the first submission to complete all objectives. The server binds a TcpListener to port 7878 and handles each connection with a custom HTTP parser that reads raw bytes, extracts the method and path, locates the file on disk, detects its MIME type via mime_guess, and writes a full HTTP response back over the stream — all without any web framework dependency.

Key Features

• Raw TCP listener — no web framework whatsoever
• Custom HTTP request parser — method, path, headers from raw bytes
• Custom HTTP response builder with correct status codes
• MIME type detection via mime_guess for proper Content-Type headers
• Recursive directory traversal using walkdir
• URL encoding/decoding via url-escape
• First submission to complete all StackUp Rust Bounty objectives
