Hosting a website on an 8-bit microcontroller

A developer successfully hosted a functional website on an AVR64DD32 microcontroller (costing $1-2) by using SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol) over a USB serial connection instead of Ethernet, which would have been too fast for the 8-bit chip to handle. The implementation required custom TCP/IP stack code and serves a hardcoded HTTP response, demonstrating that basic web hosting is possible on extremely resource-constrained hardware despite the complexity of networking protocols.
