AServer listens for http requests from clients and provides responses.

since you have so much time, I suggest you to go to the xampp site: http://www.apachefriends.org and have a look at the documentation: that's one server If you still have time left, I suggest you to go to the node.js site: https://nodejs.org and have a look at the documentation: that's another server. then there is "lighttp", "Ubuntu server","nginx"...... I'm not as lucky as you are to have all this free time.
