How to show an unfinished "website" to my friend?

[Cy-Fy]

So hello guys, I've been working on a small little project of making a website using html and css. However I can preview the website in chrome as all the files and the html file can be opened in chrome but how do I show this website to my friend over the internet??

Thanks very much

If it's only HTML and CSS, you can just send him the files. If you want him to access it remotely through his browser, then you'd need a HTTP server such as Apache.

You can use team viewer, or you can get it setup on a hosting service for an hour so he can see it

There are free hosting solutions available such as http://www.000webhost.com/

 

If your running a windows box it's trivial to do it yourself; for example you can just add the IIS feature, drop the files in there do some configuration and give him it's external IP address + whatever configuration you did on the port and path. If you have a static IP then you have your own limited hosting solution else it's temporary.

 

In the case of Linux then just roll Apache.

If all your paths are relative paths (which they should be!!), just send him all the files. Then he can easily open them in a webbrowser locally.

^This.

Zip it and Zap it over.
