<![CDATA[WebServerNpp (Python Script plugin)]]>Hello everyone! 👋

I’m new to scripting and wanted to share my first creation—WebServerNpp! With some help from DeepSeek, I built this handy tool that turns Notepad++ into a local web server. I’d love for you to try it out and let me know what you think!

✨ What does this script do?
• Turns Notepad++ into a lightweight web server
• Serves files directly from your current working directory
• Perfect for quick HTML/CSS/JS testing
• Full control via Notepad++'s Python console

You can get the script at https://github.com/josevdr95new/WebServerNpp

Now which will come first, https or authentication?

Available commands:

startws() - Starts the server in the current
stopws() - Stops the server
statusws() - Displays the server status
refreshws() - Restarts the server

turns Notepad++ into a local web server

Sounds like VSCode’s Live Server functionality?

Cheers.

I’m curious if you have a use case or a reason behind you project or are just messing around.
