## Examples

{% tabs %}
{% tab label="Additional http-server options" %}

There are additional options from `http-server` that can be passed as CLI args. For example, to enable directory listing, pass `-d` as follows:

```shell
nx serve myapp -d
```

Refer to the [`http-server`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server) package for all available options.
