This is exactly right, I use it and it works a treat for static html only websites like hugo.

To make it work, enable the http server, then inside your mystic dir make a webroot dir if it isn't already there, then inside that dir you will need a cfg dir and a www dir, then just make your index.html inside the www dir and you'll be golden.

Don't overthink it, it's really a pretty basic and simple web server, if you want anything beyond basic html, go with something separate - but using the mystic web server allows you to offer file downloads using http protocol as well as regular zmodem/ymodem/etc.

Just my £0.02 =)
