The following JEP is proposed to target JDK 18:

  408: Simple Web Server
       https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/408

  Summary: Provide a command-line tool to start a minimal web server
  that serves static files in the current directory. This low-threshold
  utility will be useful for prototyping, ad-hoc coding, and testing
  purposes, particularly in educational contexts.

Feedback on this proposal from JDK Project Committers and Reviewers [1]
is more than welcome, as are reasoned objections.  If no such objections
are raised by 23:59 UTC on Thursday, 14 October, or if they’re raised
and then satisfactorily answered, then per the JEP 2.0 process proposal
[2] I’ll target this JEP to JDK 18.
