Simple HTTP Server

Fedir Tsapana

About this app

An application that will allow you to run a small local http server with static content. You can select any folder and it will become available on your local network via the http protocol. A basic understanding of how the HTTP server works is required. Can be used for testing, education or sharing content purposes. Not designed to stream media content or for dynamic backend processing.

Ratings and reviews

Awesome simple little server. Also, I noticed another review said it didn't list file contents, but it does seem to do that now (or at least it does do that on my phone) Pair this with a hotspot (or WiFi Direct hotspot) and you can share video files stored on your phone with people during a boring stretch in a road trip). I know the description says it's not designed to stream media, but my mp4s played in browser just fine. Kinda like your own inflight movie service :)

Simple, small and exactly what it says on the tin. I downloaded 'Lessons in Electric Circuits' from ibiblio. My four "open with"s won't load the pics. I have Duckduckgo and Firefox, but neither appear in my "open with"s. I tried multiple html viewers and editors, as well as "open with" editors, all either failing when offline or to add my app preferences; then I thought, "Is there a basic web server for Android?" YES THERE IS! All I had do was change the folder and extension (htm->html)!

Does what i needed it to do. I needed a way to do my course on my ipad. The courses are made with local html files that are accessed through a browser. Ipads are stupid and this allows me to do my course without ipad limitations sonce I don't want to always be strapped to a pc. It's crazy simple.
