Serving locally a webapp
Not too sure what you are trying to achieve from reading the question. but from what i understand is that you'd like to be able to launch your application and serve it on the web when done.
you could use heroku!(www.heroku.com), same way you are hosting the application on your local, you simply make a Procfile, and in that file you put in the command that you'd normally run on your local, and push to Heroku.
I'm developing an html web page which will visualize data. The intention is that this web page works only on one computer, so I don't want it to be online. Just off line. The web uses only Js, css and html. It is very simple and is not using any database, the data is loaded through D3js XMLHttpRequest. Up to now it is working with a local python server for development, through python -m SimpleHTTPServer. Eventually I will want to launch it easyer. Is it possible to pack the whole thing in a launchable app? Do you recommend some tools to do it or some things to read? What about the server part? Is it possible to launch a "SimpleHTTPServer" kind of thing without the console? Or maybe just one command which launches the server plus the web?
Thanks in advance.
