Class SimpleWebServerNotes

java.lang.Object
net.jrodolfo.java_evolution.java18.SimpleWebServerNotes
public class SimpleWebServerNotes extends Object
Explains the simple web server introduced in Java 18.

Before Java 18, serving static files usually meant installing another tool or writing a small server. Java 18 added the jwebserver command-line tool for the simpler case: quickly serving a directory during local development, documentation review, or demos.

Unit tests do not launch it because that would introduce port and process-management concerns. This is a tooling feature, so notes communicate the practical usage without making the test suite depend on a background process.
