# local-web-server # local-web-server
A convenient local web server to support productive, full-stack Javascript development. Built on [lws](https://github.com/lwsjs/lws). The productive development web server. Built on [lws](https://github.com/lwsjs/lws).
**Features** **Features**
- Lightweight - Fast and lightweight. Supports most common web application styles:
- http/https ([http2](https://github.com/nodejs/http2) will be added once ready) - Static site.
- Rewrite routes to local or remote resources - Single Page Application (client-side rendering, web service consumption).
- Url rewriting - Server-rendered content.
- Proxy certain routes to a remote server (e.g. an existing API). Avoids CORS pain when consuming remote services. - Configurable with sensible defaults. Configure by constructor option, command-line option, stored config or all three.
- Configurable by command-line options, stored config or both - HTTP or HTTPS ([HTTP2](https://github.com/nodejs/http2) will be added once ready)
- Efficient, predictable, entity-tag-powered conditional request handling (no need to 'Disable Cache' in DevTools, slowing page-load down) - URL rewriting
- Local rewrites for quick experimentation (e.g. from `/img/logo.svg` to `/img/new-logo.svg`)
- Rewrite to remote resources (e.g. from `/api/*` to `https://example-api.pl/api/$1`). *Note: ignores remote server's CORS policy, which during development is typically what you want*.
- Optimised default caching strategy. Efficient, predictable, entity-tag-powered conditional request handling (no need to 'Disable Cache' in DevTools, slowing page-load down)
