Android Question questions about creating embed html web server

[arced]

Hi All,

Have been searching in this forum. stumble on "HttpServer" lib, which is already upgraded into HttpUtils2.
Questions :
1. Please help about 1 simple example for serving HTML web server. Can it be done with HttpUtils2 ?
i've been read the forum. so i found a function like about the "jetty" library => object.ServerStaticWeb file kind a thing ? is there any equivalent logic using with HttpUtils2 ?

2. I need your opinion in building Android and IOS app. so right now i am developing likely HYBRID app (which is Web Page for the Front End, and Native B4A/I for the backend. Using interfaceJavaScript method to communicate it). Is it good with this approach ? anyone already down this path ? can share what is the greatest stumble you are facing ?

*note : if HttpUtils2 can be the HTML web server then i need too for B4I. if no tools for IOS then i need to consider other approach. whether to go all native.... sacrifice the great web design can do.

*note2 : i use framework7 web app design. it seems their JS need load resource with address like "file:///..." which is not allowed by the browser.

thx before

You are confusing different things. HttpUtil2 which was replaced by OkHttpUtils2 is a client library.

You need to follow this tutorial: Embed an Http Server in your Android Application

No.

There is currently no equivalent library for B4i. I do however plan to write a simple http server in B4X. It will take some time.
