/**
 * Simple Node Web Server for sending static files using using only
 * Node.js built-in features without any outside dependencies.
 *
 * To run:
 *    npm start
 *
 * If you do not have node/npm installed and still want to run this
 * site locally then you can also run it if you have Python installed.
 * Depending on the version Python installed and the OS one of the
 * following commands should work:
 *     python3 -m http.server
 *     python -m http.server
 *     python -m SimpleHTTPServer
 *
 * Important - This script is very minimal by design and includes no error handling.
 * It works well but has few features so is not intended for production apps.
 *
 * Since this file is small you can step through the code using a debugger
 * which makes it is useful for learning purposes.
