Start a http server using python in docker containers to a custom port
and expose that to domain.

This is what I use.
You have better solution say it out loud rather than criticising.

I use [this] for serving files (https://github.com/mohamnag/nginx-
file-browser)

I use FileBrowser docker container, behind a cloudflare tunnel and
domain name.

He's describing spinning up a simple web server to sent files from,
just drop them in the www folder.  You can use apache2, nginx,
whatever.
