Static Server

Turn your iPhone into a pocket-sized Web runtime environment. This app is more than a local-network file server β it is a mobile server that can run full-featured Web tools. The boundaries of modern Web technology have expanded dramatically: many fully-featured tool applications can ultimately be packaged as a set of local files. This app provides exactly such a runtime, letting you load and run these projects directly on your phone β whether you are coding, preparing lessons, planning, or organizing your thoughts, you can put it to use on your phone anytime. Import a compressed package and start a local HTTP service with one tap, and you can load complete build output or ready-made tools directly on your mobile device. Runtime capabilities: β’ A standard HTTP runtime that fully supports page routing, WebAssembly, IndexedDB local storage, and single-page applications (SPA). β’ Compatible with the vast majority of Web software that can be compiled into static assets, moving your results into your phone as-is. Compatibility: β’ Supports the dist, build, out, and static build output directories of mainstream frameworks such as Vue, React, Vite, and Next. β’ Compatible with the vast majority of WASM applications, such as JupyterLite, letting you use a browser-based Python runtime directly on your phone. β’ Supports various Web tools such as open-source whiteboards, mind maps, and drawing editors. Convenience and privacy: β’ Drag-and-drop upload of packages over the local network, no cable needed, no reliance on any cloud server. β’ All data is stored on the device, usable offline, and your files and code never leave your device. Who it is for: β’ Developers: verify how build output actually runs on mobile and catch compatibility issues that only surface on phones. β’ Programming beginners: no need to set up a complex development environment β import an offline coding environment and start learning anytime, anywhere. β’ Personal users: put ready-made Web tools such as open-source whiteboards, mind maps, and drawing notes into your phone for studying, lesson prep, planning, and organizing thoughts β no coding required to enjoy the convenience of having them ready at hand on mobile. β’ Teams: on the same local network, other devices can access the Web tools running on your phone. Demo on the spot without carrying a laptop. Whether you are showing a product prototype to a colleague on the high-speed train, running an offline coding environment in class, or using a whiteboard to sort out the flow of a lesson, as long as you have your phone, your Web tools are ready to run anytime. It is more than a simple web viewer β it is a mobile server that runs full-featured Web tools, where coding environments, canvas editors, and all kinds of interactive tools can run locally on your phone.
