Osgood is a secure, fast, and simple platform for running JavaScript HTTP servers. It is written using Rust and V8. Services written today share a common flaw: Being over-privileged. Osgood is an attempt to build a platform from the ground up, one which applies the Principle of Least Privilege at its very core. Osgood requires that policies be written ahead of time describing the I/O requirements of an application. If such an operation hasn't been whitelisted, it will fail. Developers familiar with JavaScript development in the web browser should feel right at home with the APIs provided in Osgood.
