I think you might be getting HTTP confused with HTML.

Both ikiwiki and mkdocs turn files into static HTML files, but neither
support serving the files using HTTP - you need to install a HTTP server to
do that.

I notice that ikiwiki is in the web section, however I believe that is a
mistake. The web section is defined as "Web servers and their modules."
however ikiwiki is not a web server or a module of a web server.

Other programs for converting text files into HTML files are in the text
section, e.g. docbook-utils, so I think this is the correct section.

At first I looked at the "doc" section, but that seems to be about the

Agreed.
