Select a link to the right to download the Nitrogen 2.1.0 environment for your platform. Each download is a self-contained installation of Nitrogen that includes both Erlang and a web server. (In other words, you don't need to have Erlang installed to run this.)

You have a choice between three popular Erlang web servers:

• Mochiweb - HTTP server developed by Bob Ippolito/MochiMedia.
• Yaws - HTTP server developed by Claes "Klacke" Wikstrom.
• Cowboy - HTTP server developed by Loïc Hoguin.
• Webmachine - HTTP resource server developed by Basho Technologies (runs on Mochiweb under the hood.)
• Inets - Lightweight HTTP server built into Erlang.

Either Mochiweb, Webmachine, Cowboy, or Yaws is recommended for production use. Whichever one you choose is up to personal preference, but Inets is not recommended for running in production because it does not yet include content-caching/expiration headers, which can cause slow loadtimes.

These packages were generated from Nitrogen source code by running make package_inets, make package_cowboy, make package_mochiweb, make package_webmachine and make package_yaws.

Alternatively, if you plan on contributing to the Nitrogen source code, you can download the source tree from GitHub.
