This package installs the `ws` command-line tool. The most simple use case is to run `ws` without any arguments - this will host the current directory as a static web site.
```sh
$ ws
Serving at http://mbp.local:8000, http://127.0.0.1:8000, http://192.168.0.100:8000
Another common use case is to proxy certain requests to different servers (e.g. you'd like to use data from a different environment). For example, the following command would proxy `http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/users/1` to `https://internal-service.local/api/users/1`:
Being modular and extensible, features can be added or removed from `ws` in the shape of Middleware, ServerFactory or View modules. [See the wiki for full documentation and tutorials](https://github.com/lwsjs/local-web-server/wiki).
