http-server  is  a  simple,  zero-configuration  command-line  http  server.  It  is  powerful enough for
       production usage, but it's simple and hackable enough to be used  for  testing,  local  development,  and
       learning.

index.html will be served as the default file to any directory requests.

       404.html will be served if a file is not found. This can be used for SPA hosting to serve the entry page.
