http-server: Start an HTTP server with directory listings disabled.

http-server

$ http-server -d ${false}

try on your machine

The command http-server -d ${false} is used to start an HTTP server.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

http-server: This is the main command to start the HTTP server.
-d: This is an option or a flag for the http-server command. The -d option is used to specify the directory from which the server should serve files. In this case, ${false} is being passed as the value of the -d option.
${false}: This is a placeholder or a variable. The value ${false} is being used as the directory parameter, but it is not a valid directory path.

Depending on the implementation of the http-server command, passing ${false} as the value for the -d option may result in an error or failure because it is not a valid directory path.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
