Is it possible to use a USB flash drive to serve files locally to a browser?

Question

Using just python, is it possible to possible to use a USB flash drive to serve files locally to a browser, and save information off the online web?

Ideally I would only need python.

Where would I start?

Answer 1

This doesn't seem much different then serving files from a local hard drive. You could map the thumbdrive to always be something not currently used on your machine (like U:).

Answer 2

You can use portable python on the flash drive. Portable Python And code some sort of little python webserver, handling get and post extending the BaseHTTPRequestHandler class.
