Howdy,

So, I only need this for internal usage for hosting some info and files. What I want is something that sets up and is ready fairly easily, done via GUI, and I want something that’s stupid easy to configure. For example, I want if I make a subdirectory under the defined web root, then the server should recognize that, and if the browser points to a directory that contains no index, then it should simply provide a file list.

I can deal with a little configuration etc. but it’s never going to do more than extremely rudimentary response and providing files. I’m on Kubuntu.

Thanks.

    no gui, but still super simple and enough for local testing:

    • open a terminal
    • cd folder/you/want/to/serve/from
    • python -m http.server -b 127.0.0.1

    open browser surf to http://127.0.0.1:8000/
