Simple Web Server
Create local web servers
The tool provides a graphical interface for launching local HTTP servers with minimal configuration. Users can select server options through a few clicks, allowing quick setup of a development web server on Windows or macOS. It supports running several server instances simultaneously, and these can continue operating in the background even after the main application window is closed.
For projects that rely on client‑side routing, the application offers a single‑click toggle to enable URL rewriting, facilitating the testing of single‑page applications. The software is positioned as a continuation of a prior browser‑based solution, extending its capabilities to native desktop environments. It is marked as stable and primarily targets developers who need an easy way to serve static files or test web applications locally.
