llhttp

brew install llhttp v9.4.2 MIT

Fast HTTP parser library written in TypeScript and compiled to C, a modernized port of http_parser.

Why you might care

Used by Node.js and other HTTP clients/servers needing a robust, standards-compliant parser. Faster and more maintainable than the original http_parser; primarily valuable as a build/runtime dependency rather than a direct CLI tool.
