expose: Run the Expose server.
$ expose serve
try on your machine

The command "expose serve" is typically used in the context of running a web application or serving static files using the Expose tool.

Expose is a command-line tool that allows you to share your local development environment with others over the internet. It creates a secure tunnel between your local machine and a publicly accessible URL.

When you run the command "expose serve", it starts a web server that serves the files from your current directory (or a specified directory) on a specific port, and exposes it to the internet using the Expose service. It generates a unique URL that you can share with others to access your locally hosted web application.

By using "expose serve", you can easily showcase your web application on a public URL without having to deploy it to a dedicated server or hosting platform. This is particularly useful for testing, collaboration, or demonstrations.
