4.6 Invoking hoot server

The hoot server tool can be used to start the development web server. The web server serves static files from the current working directory and also acts as a proxy for REPLs running within web browsers.

The general syntax is:

hoot server [option ...]

The available options are documented below.

--port=port

-p port

Listen for HTTP requests on port. If this flag isn’t specified, the web server listens on port 8080.

--repl-port=port

Listen for REPL clients on port. If this flag isn’t specified, the REPL server listens on port 37146 (the same as Guile).
