Description

Serves a chosen file or folder over HTTP from the command line, making it easy to share downloads temporarily through a browser. It is useful for quick local transfers, test servers, and simple file distribution.

Because it can expose local files to other devices, choose the folder, bind address, port, and authentication options carefully. Stop the command when the sharing session is finished.
