simplehttp

simplehttp is a command‑line utility written in Go that launches a lightweight HTTP server to expose the contents of a local directory. By default it serves the current working directory on port 8080, but users can override the directory with the `-d` flag and the listening port with the `-p` flag. The tool prints a brief informational line when it starts and can be stopped with a standard interrupt signal.

The program targets developers who need a quick way to share files locally, such as during web development, testing, or debugging. Its minimal configuration and reliance on the Go toolchain make it easy to install via `go install` and run without additional dependencies.

simplehttp is marked as stable and includes a command‑line interface. The project welcomes feedback through issue tracking and accepts contributions that follow common Go coding standards.
