Homepage: https://github.com/skeeto/emacs-http-server
Description-en: pure elisp HTTP server
This used to be httpd.el but there are already several of these out there
already of varying usefulness. Since the name change, it's been stripped down
to simply serve files and directory listings. Client requests are sanitized so
this should be safe, but its author makes no guarantees.
