There are two common ways to run a minimal PHP HTTP server locally:

1. Using PHP built-in web server (recommended for quick testing)

```
php -S 127.0.0.1:8080 -t public
```

2. If an entry script is provided (e.g. `server.php` or `run.php`)

php server.php
```

Replace `server.php` with the actual script name if present.
