Is there any way to change the routing. ie: make i so <localhost>:<eelPort> redirects to main.html instead of having to do <localhost>:<eelPort>/main.html #339

If you want this just for the home page, calling the file 'index.html' should suffice as this is generally the name of the default document returned by webservers. Is that what you mean/does that help?

It does not, after changing the file to index.html I still get a "404 not found" when attempting to connect to "localhost:8000/" from chrome

So I managed to implement this by making the following changes in eels init.py

BOTTLE_ROUTES = {
    "/eel.js": (_eel, dict()),
    "/<path:path>": (_static, dict()),
    "/eel": (_websocket, dict(apply=[wbs.websocket])),
    "/": (_static, dict())
}
def _static(path="index.html"):

Hi @bribrah. I've done something very similar in https://github.com/samuelhwilliams/Eel/pull/340 that should meet your needs. 👍
