Does Crystal have built-in libs that support building web services?

<ytti>
it has "http/server"
<ytti>
it does not have any web framework, and I guess virtually everyone would agree, stanard library shouldn't have, as it's too opinionated subject

<kulelu88>
ytti: Can I use the http/server to accomplish this: I want to build a PoC where I receive an API call (say from twitter), and then my PoC will create its own/alternate outgoing API that another app can use. Think of it as a middleman for APIs
<ytti>
yes
<ytti>
i think question is 'can i receive and send HTTP requests'
<kulelu88>
ytti: as someone who seems more familiar with this, can you explain to me where the biggest bottleneck might be for fetching a request and then exposing that request again with a middleman? Will it be the 'fetching' part of the 'it is fetched, now let it be received' ?
<ytti>
performance wise?
<ytti>
probably TCP's RTT, i.e. I/O wait
<ytti>
i would be surprised if twitter would even send significant qps of API calls
<kulelu88>
ytti: so I could just as easily opt to use Python for this?
<ytti>
yeah
<kulelu88>
Alright, fair enough. I will stick with the familiar then
