About Localhost Server
Turn your Android phone into a powerful, lightweight local web server! Localhost Server allows developers, students, and hobbyists to host and test static websites and dynamic web APIs directly on their Android device without needing root access or external cloud hosting.
Whether you're developing static HTML/CSS/JS sites or testing server-side scripts, Localhost Server provides a local hosting environment in your pocket.
π KEY FEATURES:
β’ Web Root Directory Selector: Pick any folder on your internal storage or SD card to host your project files.

β’ Custom Port Configuration: Set any custom HTTP port between 1024 and 65535 (Default: 8080).
β’ Dual Network Access Modes:
- Localhost Only (127.0.0.1) for secure, isolated testing on your device.
- Local Network (LAN - 0.0.0.0) to share and test your site with other phones, PCs, or tablets on the same Wi-Fi.
β’ Real-time Request Inspector: Monitor incoming HTTP requests, response latency, status codes (2xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx), client IP addresses, and payload sizes.
β’ In-App Live Preview: Instantly test and interact with your hosted website or API using the built-in browser preview.
β’ Background Hosting Service: Keep your web server running continuously in the background with a foreground service notification.
