I'm looking into using Snowpack as an alternative to Webpack. By default, if I run the webpack dev server (webpack serve
) and no default document exists, browsing to http://localhost:8080
gives me a directory listing. I want to enable the same behaviour in Snowpack, but by default it's returning a 404 Not Found when I browse to /
. Is there a config setting or a plugin I can use to enable directory browsing so it works in a similar way to Webpack?

By default snowpack doesn't provide that kind of functionality out of the box. But that doesn't mean it's impossible.
You could use express with snowpack server and fallback to serve-index if nothing is found.
Basically you'll have to implement it yourself. But it's not that difficult

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news bud, but I dont think such a thing is able to be done on snowpack. The two bundlers operate a slightly different server, Snowpack needs to use the index.html to route the server to, webpack opens a server the port first then goes off and hosts the files. ( a slightly simplistic take on the two) Sorry I wish I could of been more helpful man,
