Build a High‑Performance Queue System with Webman and GatewayWorker

Overview

The project implements a simple queue and ticket‑calling system with ultra‑high performance and scalability, built on the Webman HTTP framework and the GatewayWorker TCP long‑connection framework. Such systems are widely used in banks, hospitals, government service centers, restaurants, airports, and similar venues to improve service efficiency, enhance customer experience, and streamline workflow by automating the queuing process.

Webman is a high‑performance HTTP service framework based on Workerman, intended to replace the traditional php‑fpm architecture. It can be used to develop websites, HTTP APIs, or micro‑services.

GatewayWorker, also built on Workerman, provides a rapid development framework for TCP long‑connection applications such as push‑notification servers, instant messaging back‑ends, game servers, IoT, and smart‑home services.
