How much work is involved integrating this server into your application versus writing 20 lines of Go code? Or less. Maybe more.

Not necessarily. In addition, this kind of program can be really useful for development.

I use "python3 -m http.server" a lot when I'm just testing a bit of HTML/JS and don't want to setup a whole virtual host within Nginx/Apache. It just starts a static file server, on any platform.

So just like go except with benefits.
