Server-side rendering

Any file with its executable bit set is executed instead of being served to the client directly.
The produced stdout is used in place of the file's actual contents.

First thought: amazing, incredibly simple!

Second thought: finally - witing the website backend in bash!!

But then came resignation: this is terrible for security...

This is effectively a remote code execution vulnerability by design.
And it's glorious.

Normal websites also execute code on the backend.
But using stdout and bash makes mistakes very easy.
Any sideeffect of your program might be used to manipulate your backend.
