Web Server for Android

Tags:

Is it possible to host a web server within an Android phone itself? Similar to Apache. I want to access the web server from the mobile browser itself.

Couldn't find any reference online. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

Can a phone be a web server?

It doesn't matter if you're hosting your website on a smartphone, tablet, or even an Android TV. Whichever Android device you select, when used in conjunction with a dynamic DNS update client (of these, No-IP.com has an Android app), you'll be able to serve web pages to computers beyond your home or corporate network.

Short: yes. If you are looking at code, check out the org.apache.http package. If you are looking at a ready app, check iJetty and kWS.
