I guess it depends on what your purpose is... but I would say
the simplest way to do it would be to install twisted python and
then ...


>mkdir foo
>mkdir foo/bar
>touch foo/abc
>touch foo/bar/defg
>mktap web --port 8888 --path foo
>twistd -f web.tap

Then point your browser at http://localhost:8888/
