How do I set up sbmongoose to use on my own vps?

Can we hope that at some point there will be more documentation on sbmongoose?
And under what license is it released?
In the meantime, the first successful experiment:
d:\websrv>sbmongoose -document_root d:\websrv
Mongoose web server v.4.2 started on port(s) 8080 with web root [d:\websrv]
==========
http://127.0.0.1:8080/[app name sb].html OK!!!
p.s. in d:\websrv\lib240\ <- ~Libraries\javascript\
==========
d:\websrv>sbmongoose -h
Mongoose version 4.2 (c) Sergey Lyubka, built on Nov 30 2022
Usage:
mongoose -A <htpasswd_file> <realm> <user> <passwd>
mongoose [config_file]
mongoose [-option value ...]

But why you need sbmongoose and not mongoose or any other of hundrend of free webservers out there

Because it was Fred's choice, and I've trusted his choice for over ten years. !!!

Consider that "sb"mobgoose is probably a cut down version of mongoose

At any case it a limited capabilies server since its a embedded better use a another one more "full" like apache,ngix or (for me easiest) abyss
Aming other stuff you will have sql/php/authorization ......

I understand this very well.
But it seems to me that for SB the use of mongoose, taking into account the features taken into account by the author in sbmongoose would be appropriate not only in development but also in subsequent operation.

I'm just going to leave it here.

p.s. Unlike mongoose, civetweb is licensed by MIT

sbmongoose is only intended to be used by the IDE and not shipped with your apps. You should use another webserver for this.

But it works fine for me spiderbasic-app+sbmongoose+purebasic-cgi.
At least at the debugging stage.
Am I violating some point in the license?

The version we use is GPL license, so it needs to stay in a separate executable. It's a custom built, and very old (2013) so it's not tested against security issues and shouldn't be used in production.
