Question:  what does this comment mean ? 
# keeping :js waiting for :css to land

Suggestion: Rather than allowing to specify the path, maybe we can allow
specifying the port. I'm thinking about something like:

"http-server -p $1"

Also not sure if we would need caching for the local development, so maybe we
can specify:
"http-server -p $1 -c-1"

The default port for http-server module is 8080, we might want to update the
README accordingly:
"HTML pages under URLs like `http://127.0.0.1:8080/firstRun.html`"

Or
you can run `npm start 5000`

I'd say let's keep it simple for now and merely replace test_server.py for now.
We can still look into caching and other features separately afterwards.

[saroyanm, 2018/02/07 09:07:53]

Okey, in that case we should at least update the README, because it's misleading
currently.
 HTML pages under URLs like `http://127.0.0.1:5000/firstRun.html`
to
 HTML pages under URLs like `http://127.0.0.1:8080/firstRun.html`
Or keep the port on 5000
