A CLI tool to serve files and directories over HTTP. Miniserve is a small, self-contained cross-platform CLI tool that allows you to serve files via HTTP with ease. It provides correct MIME type handling out of the box and supports features like authentication, file uploading, and directory creation. Key benefits include its simplicity, speed, and the convenience of a single binary with no extra dependencies required. The user interface is command-line based, offering options for customization such as setting a custom index file, enabling Single Page Application mode, and displaying QR codes for quick access. Miniserve also supports rendering README.md files like on GitHub and offers pretty themes with light and dark mode support.
