What is the simplest way to host sphinx documentation (static html) on a local network?

Question

I would like to host sphinx documentation on a local network for a python application I am writing.

I have unsuccessfully tried to host it using the following Flask methods:

The above methods either resulted in a 404 or unformatted html (no css, etc)

I've also tried using a simple http server such as python from within the docs/_build/html/ directory (where index.html exists) and only a 404 was achieved.

How can I host this documentation for my local network?

You can simply serve the files using a web server like Apache or Nginx. Some file repository systems can let you browse static sites (Artifactory, for example). You could also use readthedocs.org
