- capableweb 5y agoFor development I'm sure SimpleHTTPServer is fine for most use-cases (except SPAs, of course), but for more serious use, nginx and SimpleHTTPServer couldn't be more different.
- suprfsat 5y agoDoesn't involve installing an obsolete version of Python.
- schwartzworld 5y agoI just meant if you aren't exposing it to the outside world, why not use any other server? Curious about the real advantages.
