+[x] Read index page from filesystem
 
 ### Next Chonklist
 The stuff I need to make it usable.
-[ ] Detect missing files and return 404
+
+[ ] Read the stream to detect what resource it wants to access
+
+[ ] Detect missing files and return a 404 page
+
 [ ] Custom error pages
-[ ] User configurable
-[ ] Make an actual header
+
+[ ] Make it user configurable
+
+[ ] Properly generate headers
+
+[ ] Read other pages from filesystem
 
 ### SUPAR Chonklist
 Whatever is on here, just to make it extra spicy.
+
 [ ] HTTPS support
+
 [ ] HTTP/2 support
