Simple Network Share on Linux

Here is a reference video:

ifconfig in terminal to find your ip address
terminal to folder to share
in terminal type python3 -m SimpleHTTPServer --bind 192.168.1.31 8000
obviously change ip to actual
check the port used - something like 8000
open gufw and allow the port on the firewall for tcp
or turn gufw off because this is temporary
other machine type ip:port for the shared machine (http://192.168.1.15:8000)
sever closes when terminal is closed

Curl, Wget, Winget & Powershell Install or Download Commands
