Simple Python Server

Simple and generic python web server, designed with simplicity and extendability in mind.

Background & motivation

I really like the simplicity and elegance of frameworks like FastAPI, Flask, Express.js and Koa.js.

# Typical usage for defining routes
app = FastAPI() # Or some other framework like flask

@app.get("/")
async def root():
    return {"message": "Hello World"}

What I don't like, is the boilerplate and dependencies, for very simple use cases.

All of the above frameworks have some requirements and dependencies, meaning its not completely portable to all environments, without the need to download dependencies from the internet.

What I wanted was something that:

• A zero-dependency server.py that just works as a simple web server.
• Handle HTTP routes with a simple request - response model.
• Have a way to serve static content (HTML, CSS, JS) from a folder
