+How to run a python server for testing zarr access
+
+
+The following code makes use of the local python server to serve the zarr files. This is useful for testing the zarr files in the browser.  You can run this code in the folder where your zarr files are to start the server and make the zarr files accessible in the browser.
+
+```python
+from http.server import HTTPServer, SimpleHTTPRequestHandler
+import sys
+
+class CORSHTTPRequestHandler(SimpleHTTPRequestHandler):
+    def end_headers(self):
+        self.send_header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*')
+        super().end_headers()
+
+    def log_message(self, format, *args):
+        sys.stderr.write("%s - - [%s] %s\n" %
+                         (self.client_address[0],
+                          self.log_date_time_string(),
+                          format % args))
+
+httpd = HTTPServer(('localhost', 8000), CORSHTTPRequestHandler)
+httpd.serve_forever()
+
+```
+
+Execute a script with this code in bash directly or save it to a file and run it with python. 
 
 ```bash
-python -m http.server
+python -c "from http.server import HTTPServer, SimpleHTTPRequestHandler; import sys; class CORSHTTPRequestHandler(SimpleHTTPRequestHandler): def end_headers(self): self.send_header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*'); super().end_headers(); def log_message(self, format, *args): sys.stderr.write('%s - - [%s] %s\n' % (self.client_address[0], self.log_date_time_string(), format % args)); httpd = HTTPServer(('localhost', 8000), CORSHTTPRequestHandler); httpd.serve_forever()"
 ```
