This project is a C++ scaffold for the "Build Your Own Redis" challenge, where you'll create a toy Redis clone capable of handling basic commands like PING, SET, and GET. It serves as a clean, well-structured foundation for anyone looking to learn the inner workings of Redis through hands-on implementation.
The project demonstrates how the Redis protocol (RESP), event loops, networking, and command parsing work together to form a functional key-value store. Along the way, you'll explore core systems programming concepts while progressively adding more complexity and features.
Key Features:
Minimal C++ implementation for a Redis-compatible server.
Handles basic Redis commands with a focus on type-safe command handling.
Utilizes CMake for build configuration and vcpkg for dependency management.
Includes JavaScript end-to-end tests to validate protocol behavior.
Supports extensions for additional commands and features like in-memory key-value store and concurrency.
Designed for developers looking to deepen their understanding of server-side programming and protocol handling, this project provides a comprehensive setup for building and testing your own Redis server.
