https://github.com/victrixsoft/bashbro/blob/c543d5d42ba2425f... needs amending to listen to a Unix socket instead of a port if that's something you'd like to contribute. As for using Nginx, you should be able to install Nginx and enable its service and in that way immediately get a local HTTP server. You can then edit the config such that requests for the Host `myfiles.localhost` are `proxy_pass ...` to your bashbro server. Then `http://myfiles.localhost` in your browser should just work.
