What's the best way to test server stuff?

I'm working on a very basic project in html and javascript, but it requires sending information from a file to a server to be used in another file. Creating .html files and working on them in a folder is easy peasy, but what do I do if I want to just practise the most basics of server stuff?
Is there a way of just connecting to like 127.0.0.1\filelocation\file or something?
(I do not need to access these things from outside of the local network)
Today's post brought to you by the letter: "heck".

Sure! Just run a webserver on your computer.

You can run Apache for instance and then connect to localhost like you said.

Yes, it's real—just run a local webserver (Apache, Python http.server, Node, etc.) and access it via localhost or 127.0.0.1.
