+# dynamic-webserver
+
+Simple 69-line program written in Rust that dynamically sets up a website. Basically everything it does is configurable - which isn't much, it just looks at a directory and sets up website subdirs based on the folders in the directory.
+
+```
+/srv/website
+root
+about
+blog
+
+/srv/website/root
+index.html
+
+/srv/website/about
+index.html
+
+/srv/website/blog
+index.html
+script.js
+```
+
+With this setup of folders, and the below ENV variables, it'll set up a website with the following subdirs. `localhost:8080` (showing you `/srv/website/root/index.html`), `localhost:8080/about` (showing you `/srv/website/about/index.html`), and `localhost:8080/blog` (showing you, you guessed it, `/srv/website/blog/index.html`)
+
+```env
+DIRS_LOC=/srv/website
+INDEX_PATH=/
+ROOT_NAME=root
+IP_ADDR=127.0.0.1:8080
+```
