int main() {
    Server server;
    init_server(&server, 3000);

    add_route("/", "web/index.html");
    add_route("/about", "web/about.html");
    add_route("/contact", "web/contact.html");

    start_server(&server);

    return 0;
}

typedef struct {
    int port;
    int server_fd;
    int addrlen;
    struct sockaddr_in address;
} Server;

typedef struct {
    char *route;
    char *file_path;
} Route;
