I am learning boost and want to make a http server using Beast and Asio, but i don’t want to drag the whole boost library within my project.

What i did so far: added Boost.Beast and Boost.Asio as submodules from github repos, include them into my project and define BOOST_ASIO_STANDALONE.

Of course it doesn’t build and missing a lot of files.

So my question is: can it be done? what parts of boost must be included to make this work?
