//! Zero-dependency simple synchronous localhost server.
//! The 2 ways to use the library are:
//! - [`serve_current_dir`], [`serve`], [`serve_current_dir_at`], [`serve_at`] functions, the simpler approach.
//! - [`Server`] struct, the more complex approach.
//! If inspecting incoming connections & requests is needed (e.g. for logging), the 2nd approach
//! will be better, otherwise the 1st one will be easier.
