## WorldWideWeb Description
This app’s name is an homage to the world’s first web server. Back in 1989, Tim Berners-Lee started the web on his NeXT computer.

On that computer was an app named WorldWideWeb. This app was unique because it allowed his machine to edit and serve HTML documents. The app also used coding frameworks that were adopted by Apple after purchasing NeXT: they are being used right now to display what you’re reading.

Like that original app, this WorldWideWeb is a handy web development tool.

It’s designed for people who need to test things on their iPad or iPhone before moving the files onto a real web server like Apache or nginx. It also allows you to work in those increasingly rare moments where you don’t have a connection to the Internet. App developers can use this server to simulate and test APIs that their product uses.

FEATURES

WorldWideWeb does things differently than today’s production web servers:

• Automatic refresh — Watches your site and reloads browser when there are changes
• No caching — Every request gets a new response, no cache busters needed
• Easy to configure — Pick a folder and go
• Directory listings — A handy list of files whenever you hit a URL that doesn’t exist
• Bonjour support – Automatic DNS for easy access using devices on your local network
• REST support — Set default responses as JSON or XML for easy mocking of APIs
• No external dependencies — Completely standalone and doesn’t need other tools like Python or Ruby
• Built-in security — Runs completely in a sandbox, no access to data unless you allow it
• Powerful and lightweight – A small memory footprint with minimal CPU overhead
• No rocket science — Perfect for clients and other folks who are less technically inclined

## WorldWideWeb Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***** "Ideal iOS Web Developer Tool"
WorldWideWeb is an ideal tool for those who are developing a static website (with, say, Hugo or Ignite) on a Mac and want to test their website on an iOS device before publishing it to the web via FTP. I found a bug in a site that I am developing that occurred on an iPhone but not on a Mac desktop. 

It’s fast, reliable and very easy to use. It’s also great value (I really do appreciate one-off purchases that have no subscriptions) and yet it still offers 20 trial sessions so that prospective purchasers can try WorldWideWeb before they buy. Nice one iconfactory!

### ***** "Great"
Love this just what I needed works great does what it says on the tin Thank you.
-- Sea_Lover, 2023-03-04

### ***** "Brilliant"
Brilliant, well done, thank you!
-- Tony-RS, 2023-01-19

### ***** "Exactly what I was looking for"
Simple but extremely useful for my use case: running websites locally on my phone. It saved me the hassle of having to transform my HTML app to an iphone app, and  then having to pay Apple £100 a year for a developer account just to use MY OWN app that I developed!
I would have paid for it if I could.
