B4J Tutorial [BANano] TIP: Running a test server

UPDATE: since december 2022, chrome plugins like this have stopped working. Luckcely, the author of this plugin has created a standalone alternative you can install on your computer:

Simple Web Server: https://simplewebserver.org/

Just start the plugin and you will be presented a popup box:

Now, all you have to do is select the folder where banano.html is located and start the plugin.

You can now browse to the url the plugin is giving you:
