Simple Python server on mac
Raw
python_webserver.md

You can open html file in browser, but browser open it with file:///, serving everything from file system is not possible, I mean working with ThreeJS, ploymer you need to run everything on web server. So here is very simple web server using Python on Mac

  1. Go to directory (your development) where you need to serve file using web server
  2. Type python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
  3. open in browser http://localhost:8000/<name_of_file>.html

You can see file serving from web server, instead of file:///
