Install Nginx, add autoindex on; to the default site config, then throw the files into /var/www/html or whatever default folder it uses.
You could also just share the files via SMB. Easy to use on a PC - you could configure their computers to mount the share as a network drive on boot. Not sure about other phones but the built-in files app on my Galaxy S25 Ultra supports SMB too.

I already have SMB but want something easier for non tech family members.
Nginx sounds like the way to go and just symlink www -> recipes
Thanks.
