{"library":"express-dev-server","type":"library","category":null,"description":"express-dev-server is a command-line interface (CLI) tool designed to quickly spin up a basic development server using Express.js. It serves static files from a specified directory on a given port. Currently at version 0.2.1, this package appears to be an early-stage, minimalist project with a focus on simplicity for basic static file hosting during development. Its primary use case is for developers needing a quick way to preview static web assets without complex configuration. The project has seen no updates in several years, indicating it is no longer actively maintained. Unlike full-featured development servers, it provides very minimal options beyond serving a directory and port, and does not offer advanced features like hot module reloading, proxying, or API integration capabilities.","language":"javascript","status":"abandoned","version":"0.2.1","tags":["javascript","dev","server","express"],"last_verified":"Sun Apr 19","install":[{"cmd":"npm install express-dev-server","imports":[]},{"cmd":"yarn add express-dev-server","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add express-dev-server","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/rajikaimal/express-dev-server","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-dev-server","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":null}
