Preview a static build
Serves the target's folder with PHP's built-in web server, below the target's base path (/my-site/)
the way GitHub Pages serves a project site: a folder answers with its index.html, a missing page
with 404.html. Listens on this computer only unless --host says otherwise; stop it with Ctrl+C.

./console exp:static:serve github-public                    http://127.0.0.1:8090/my-site/
./console exp:static:serve github-public --base-path=/      at the root, as with a custom domain
./console exp:static:serve github-public --port=9000


Options:
  --port=VALUE       The port of the preview server (default 8090)
  --host=VALUE       The address the preview server listens on (default 127.0.0.1, this computer only)
  --base-path=VALUE  Serve the folder below this path (default the target's BasePath; / for the root)
  --format=VALUE     text (default) or json (the machine output exp-static/1)
