Superstatic is an enhanced static file server for Node.js, usable both as a CLI tool and as an API/middleware library. It supports HTML5 pushState apps, clean URLs, custom rewrites, redirects, caching, and JSON-based configuration.

Use cases

• serve a static site locally during development
• host a single-page app with pushState routing
• strip .html extensions with clean URLs
• configure rewrites and redirects via a JSON file
• use a static server as connect/express middleware

When to choose

• you need a static server with SPA-friendly rewrites and clean URLs
• you want JSON-configurable static hosting behavior matching Firebase Hosting
• you need an embeddable static server middleware for Node.js

When to avoid

• you need a full production web server with TLS termination and load balancing
• you are serving a dynamic server-rendered application
• you need a language-agnostic server outside the Node.js ecosystem
