Mongoose Binary is built on top of Mongoose Library which is used to serve Web
GUI on embedded devices, implement RESTful services, RPC frameworks (e.g.
JSON-RPC), handle telemetry data exchange and perform many other tasks. You'll find
it used across various industries including aerospace, manufacturing, finance,
research, automotive, gaming, IT and many more.
[Mongoose](https://www.cesanta.com/mongoose) is a
multi-protocol networking library written in C.
It provides easy to use event-driven interface that allows to implement
network protocols or scalable network applications with little effort.
Mongoose helps developers to manage the complexity of network programming
and let them concentrate on the logic, saving time and money.
