### HTTP / App server
There is a static http file server suitable for hosting Single Page Apps at http://localhost:9993/app/<app-path>
Use `zerotier-cli info -j` to find your zerotier-one service's homeDir
``` sh
cd $ZT_HOME
sudo mkdir -p app/app1
sudo mkdir -p app/appB
echo '<html><meta charset=utf-8><title>appA</title><body><h1>hello world A' | sudo tee app/appA/index.html
echo '<html><meta charset=utf-8><title>app2</title><body><h1>hello world 2' | sudo tee app/app2/index.html
curl -sL http://localhost:9993/app/appA http://localhost:9993/app/app2
```
Then visit [http://localhost:9993/app/app1/](http://localhost:9993/app/app1/) and [http://localhost:9993/app/appB/](http://localhost:9993/app/appB/)
Requests to paths don't exist return the app root index.html, as is customary for SPAs.
If you want, you can write some javascript that talks to the service or controller [api](https://docs.zerotier.com/service/v1).
