Just released: #swad 0.7! 😎

Swad is the "Simple Web Authentication Daemon". If you're looking for a solution to add cookie/form #authentication to your #nginx reverse proxy, or maybe even a #lightweight alternative to #Anubis which leaves the actual proxying to nginx, this might be for you! It is designed for use with nginx' auth_request, written in pure C, with minimal dependencies (zlib and, depending on build options, openssl/libressl and/or libpam), and compiles to a small binary (currently between 150kiB and less than 300kiB depending on compiler and target platform).

Swad should work on many #posix (and almost) systems. It's actually tested on #FreeBSD (in "production" use, but on a very low-traffic private site), and quick functionality tests also done on #Debian (#Linux) and #OpenIndiana (#Illumos, open-source #Solaris descendant).

As announced, this release doesn't bring any new features (in terms of WHAT it can do), but great improvements "under the hood", that should help performance at least on some platforms, see release notes for swad 0.7.
