Maybe even allow `datasette serve` to detect if it was passed a single argument that's a directory, not a file, and kick in to "directory layout configuration mode" in that case: datasette . | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/731/reactions", "total_count": 2, "+1": 2, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | completed |
