Sand HTTP Application Server

sand-http is an HTTP application server module designed for the Sand.js framework. It provides a structured approach to building web applications with features like automatic server lifecycle management, regular expression-based routing, Express.js-style middleware, MVC patterns for controllers and views, and graceful error handling per request. As of version 2.10.2, released in early 2021, the package appears to be in an abandoned or minimal maintenance state, with no significant updates in recent years. It heavily leverages CommonJS module syntax and relies on static Generator Functions for controller actions, a pattern that has largely been superseded by async/await in modern Node.js development. Its unique selling points, such as the `sand.ctx` execution context for helper classes, aim to simplify request-scoped data access within the Sand.js ecosystem. The project emphasizes compatibility with ES6 syntactic features within application code, though the module itself is CommonJS.
