nas-at-home

HIGHLY inspired by TheWaWaR's version of the software: simple-http-server. Please make sure to take a look at his work before looking more into mine.

My goal is to build something similar without taking a look at his code (I can look at the html my browser receives). Bare in mind this is my first time using http and/or html + css...
