A tiny (~80KB) Docker image based on BusyBox httpd for serving any static website. It supports multi-arch builds, gzip serving, reverse proxying, custom error pages, allow/deny rules, and basic auth via httpd.conf.

Use cases

• serve a static website from the smallest possible docker image
• host a static site in a container with minimal footprint
• deploy a static site with basic auth in docker
• serve gzipped static files from a container
• run a tiny reverse proxy for static content
• host a static site on arm devices with docker

When to choose

• you need the smallest possible container image for static file hosting
• you want a simple, zero-dependency static file server in docker
• you need multi-arch (amd64/arm64/armv7) static hosting
• you want basic auth or IP allow/deny rules without a full web server

When to avoid

• you need dynamic content, server-side rendering, or a full application server
• you need advanced features like TLS termination, HTTP/2, or caching layers
• you already run nginx/caddy and just need another static site
