Hey everyone, its me again.
I have recently been using an app called Paw Server for Android. Though it may seem stupid, this app can really come in handy. The app itself is a utility for managing messages, contacts ect.. But what many people do not realise is that you can host your own website on it, wherever you go. Though this will only work over wifi, you can optionally do some port forwarding to make the site accessible over the internet.
To put a custom website on the server, do the following
1. Install PAW Server for android.
2. Mout your phone's SD-Card On your computer
3. This step has two options:
A Website:
Put your website files in /paw/html/ and make sure the index.html is in this directory. (If you need help creating a site, please visit http://cyanstatic.com)
A File explorer:
If creating a website is too much of a hassle, you can just put some files that you would like to access from your browser in /paw/html/. I Put a couple of songs and videos in the folder and had no trouble streaming the files to my browser.
4. Now open PAW and press the 'Start" Button.
Congratulations!
Your website/chosen files should now be accessible from your browser
