+# Fasthttp Example
+
+A simple HTTP server example using the `fasthttp` module from `vlib/fasthttp`.
+
+## Features
+
+- Handles GET and POST requests
+- Routes requests to different controllers based on HTTP method and path
+- Returns appropriate HTTP responses with status codes and content
+
+## Building
+
+```sh
+./v examples/fasthttp
+```
+
+## Running
+
+```sh
+./examples/fasthttp/fasthttp
+```
+
+The server will listen on `http://localhost:3000`
+
+## Testing
+
+### Home endpoint
+
+```sh
+curl http://localhost:3000/
+```
+
+### Get user by ID
+
+```sh
+curl http://localhost:3000/user/123
+```
+
+### Create user
+
+```sh
+curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/user
+```
+
+### 404 response
+
+```sh
+curl http://localhost:3000/notfound
+```
+
+## File Structure
+
+- `main.v` - Entry point and request router
+- `controllers.v` - Request handlers for different routes
+- `v.mod` - Module metadata
+
+## Architecture
+
+The example demonstrates:
+
+1. **Request Routing**: The `handle_request()` function routes incoming HTTP requests based on
+   method and path
+2. **Response Handling**: Controllers return HTTP responses with proper headers and status codes
+3. **Content Type**: All responses are returned as `[]u8` (byte arrays)
+
+The fasthttp module handles:
+
+- Low-level socket management
+- Request parsing
+- Connection handling
+- Non-blocking I/O with epoll (Linux) or kqueue (macOS)

+# fasthttp
+
+The `fasthttp` module is a high-performance HTTP server library for V that provides low-level socket management and non-blocking I/O.
+
+## Features
+
+- **High Performance**: Uses platform-specific I/O multiplexing:
+  - `epoll` on Linux for efficient connection handling
+  - `kqueue` on macOS for high-performance event notification
+- **Non-blocking I/O**: Handles multiple concurrent connections efficiently
+- **Simple API**: Easy-to-use request handler pattern
+- **Cross-platform**: Supports Linux and macOS
+
+## Installation
+
+The module is part of the standard V library. Import it in your V code:
+
+```v
+import fasthttp
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Here's a minimal HTTP server example:
+
+```v
+import fasthttp
+
+fn handle_request(req fasthttp.HttpRequest) ![]u8 {
+	path := req.buffer[req.path.start..req.path.start + req.path.len].bytestr()
+
+	if path == '/' {
+		return 'Hello, World!'.bytes()
+	}
+
+	return '404 Not Found'.bytes()
+}
+
+fn main() {
+	mut server := fasthttp.new_server(fasthttp.ServerConfig{
+		port:    3000
+		handler: handle_request
+	}) or {
+		eprintln('Failed to create server: ${err}')
+		return
+	}
+
+	println('Server listening on http://localhost:3000')
+	server.run() or { eprintln('error: ${err}') }
+}
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### `HttpRequest` Struct
+
+Represents an incoming HTTP request.
+
+**Fields:**
+
+- `buffer: []u8` - The raw request buffer containing the complete HTTP request
+- `method: Slice` - The HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.)
+- `path: Slice` - The request path
+- `version: Slice` - The HTTP version (e.g., "HTTP/1.1")
+- `client_conn_fd: int` - Internal socket file descriptor
+
+### `Slice` Struct
+
+Represents a slice of the request buffer.
+
+**Fields:**
+
+- `start: int` - Starting index in the buffer
+- `len: int` - Length of the slice
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```v ignore
+method := req.buffer[req.method.start..req.method.start + req.method.len].bytestr()
+path := req.buffer[req.path.start..req.path.start + req.path.len].bytestr()
+```
+
+## Request Handler Pattern
+
+The handler function receives an `HttpRequest` and must return either:
+
+- `[]u8` - A byte array containing the HTTP response body
+- An error if processing failed
+
+The handler should extract method and path information from the request and route accordingly.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```v ignore
+fn my_handler(req fasthttp.HttpRequest) ![]u8 {
+	method := req.buffer[req.method.start..req.method.start + req.method.len].bytestr()
+	path := req.buffer[req.path.start..req.path.start + req.path.len].bytestr()
+
+	match method {
+		'GET' {
+			if path == '/' {
+				return 'Home page'.bytes()
+			}
+		}
+		'POST' {
+			if path == '/api/data' {
+				return 'Data received'.bytes()
+			}
+		}
+		else {}
+	}
+
+	return '404 Not Found'.bytes()
+}
+```
+
+## Response Format
+
+Responses should be returned as byte arrays.
+The server will send them directly to the client as HTTP response bodies.
+
+```v ignore
+// Simple text response
+return 'Hello, World!'.bytes()
+
+// HTML response
+return '<html><body>Hello</body></html>'.bytes()
+
+// JSON response
+return '{"message": "success"}'.bytes()
+```
+
+## Example
+
+See the complete example in `examples/fasthttp/` for a more
+detailed server implementation with multiple routes and controllers.
+
+```sh
+./v examples/fasthttp
+./examples/fasthttp/fasthttp
+```
+
+## Platform Support
+
+- **Linux**: Uses `epoll` for high-performance I/O multiplexing
+- **macOS**: Uses `kqueue` for event notification
+- **Windows**: Currently not supported
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+- The `fasthttp` module is designed for high throughput and low latency
+- Handler functions should be efficient; blocking operations will affect other connections
+- Use goroutines within handlers if you need to perform long-running operations without
+  blocking the I/O loop
+
+## Notes
+
+- HTTP headers are currently not parsed; the entire request is available in the buffer
+- Only the request method, path, and version are parsed automatically
+- Response status codes and headers must be manually constructed if needed
+- The module provides low-level access for maximum control and performance
