"simple" web server is relative #4

Some will have Apache or Nginx installed already and know how to put files behind those web servers and be able to edit the files. Update the documentation to note that Apache and Nginx will work but that no instructions are provided. The assumption is that if you know how to install and manage these web servers you'll be able to place and edit files behind them as well.

The one issue to call out is the expectation in some places in the workshop that the web server is listening on port 3000. Not having tested a web server listening on another port, I'm uncertain how much would need to be changed to make every section of the workshop work.

The intention of the original is that it is possible to use something that is already available without having to install anything further. If there are other default web servers available on some platforms those could be included as well.

Note that it would also require setting CORS headers.
