# Mojo::Server::Daemon::Prefork(3pm)

## NAME

Mojo::Server::Daemon::Prefork - Preforking HTTP 1.1 And WebSocket Server

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Mojo::Daemon::Prefork;
    my $daemon = Mojo::Daemon::Prefork->new;
    $daemon->port(8080);
    $daemon->run;
```

## DESCRIPTION

Mojo::Server::Daemon::Prefork is a full featured preforking HTTP 1.1 and WebSocket server using a dynamic worker pool with `"IPv6"`, `"TLS"`, `"epoll"`, `"kqueue"`, hot deployment, UNIX domain socket sharing and optional async io support.

Optional modules IO::KQueue, IO::Epoll, IO::Socket::INET6 and IO::Socket::SSL are supported transparently and used if installed.
