What is the advantage over http-server package. #133

Closed qiulang closed 4 years ago

qiulang commented 4 years ago

Hi this is a question.

I have been using https://github.com/http-party/http-server until recently someone told me I may give local-web-server a try. So I was wondering what is the advantage over http-server package ?

Thanks!

Sorry, I have never used http-server before. You can find plenty of information about local-web-server on the wiki. Local-web-server is regularly maintained, supports HTTP2 and is 100% customisable. There is a plugin available to support most features, or you can create your own middleware plugin.

@qiulang did you try local-web-server? What is your opinion?

qiulang commented 4 years ago

I have tried it but the hard part is to persuade my team members to try it instead of http-server. Hence the question.

The main issue with http-server right now is that ecstatic, on which http-server heavily depends, is no longer developed.
