The premise of this project was that there is no common and well known web server implementation built upon the com.sun.net.httpserver package.

There still isn't, but this one aims to come as close as possible.
That is because I had to pick up the OpenJDK and modify the source code of Sun's package (some bugs prevented my server from doing all it needed to do) and hook into it deeper.

This, however, lead to a pure Java implementation of a lightweight and easy to use http/https origin file server.

It's simple to use (just run the executable for HTTP/HTTPS) and highly configurable (with a single config file per profile).

You can read the extensive documentation for more details.
