Deploy Local Static Websites Easily with NodeJS

Posted on By 吴杰

Goal

I have some local web pages, js files and css files, and I want to deploy them on a local server to debug the website (for I cannot merely run the index.html on the browser because of some CORS problems).

Steps

  • Install NodeJS from nodejs.org
  • Install http-server from npm: npm install -g http-server
  • Change directory (in the cmd prompt) to the root of you website folder where there must be an index.html, and run http-server
  • Open a browser and enter the website according to the information given above.
