🚀 Rebol Web Framework now available on Codeberg

Hi everyone,

I’m excited to announce that my Rebol Web Framework is now open-source under the MIT license on Codeberg!

Key features:

• Lightweight CGI-based framework for Rebol 3.
• Markdown rendering with syntax highlighting.
• Just 2 core scripts: rsp.cgi (CGI orchestrator) and markdown.r3 (Markdown engine).
• Perfect for blogs, photo galleries, or simple dynamic pages.

Why?

• Pure Rebol 3, no external dependencies.
• Easy integration with Apache/Nginx/lighttpd.
• Self-hosted, MIT-licensed, and Codeberg-hosted for independence.

Documentation is currently being written and will be published in the repo soon. Stay tuned!

Feedback welcome (via issues), but no direct contributions—this is a solo project for now.

Check it out: Codeberg repo

Happy coding!

Nice. But I can see that in your web server configuration example you have:

SetEnv "REBOL_HOME" "/usr/local/bin"

That is definitely not safe setting, because it is path where are system executables!
Preferably you should use some folder where only the account used to run the server have access.

Thank you Oldes, I will fix this :)
