Draco is a Hack Club - https://hackclub.com YSWS (You Ship We Ship), teenagers build a working server side web framework from scratch. Ship it, and we send you a mechanical keyboard + SSD.
The idea came from building Beasty, my own HTTP server from raw TCP - https://github.com/NewSmoke38/beasty-the-http-server
The moment you parse your first request line by hand and a browser actually responds, something clicks. You stop thinking of HTTP as magic and start thinking of it as bytes. That's the feeling I want 50 teenagers to have. The project has 6 milestones — from opening a TCP socket all the way to middleware and custom routing. Doable in a weekend if you're motivated, ~15 hours of focused work. Draco site: https://github.com/NewSmoke38/draco
