Overview
pkg-and-serve. This project allows you to package a static website as a single executable file. This executable will start a local server hosting your site, open it in the user's default browser and shut itself down when the site is closed. Note that this is most useful for quickly creating a shareable file for testing/portable deployment and will usually be a less ideal user experience when compared with a full desktop application (e.g. with Electron).
