the app can start, create the vhosts, listen and serve file:// mounts on
them.

+which contains global lws context settings like this
+
+{
+  "global": {
+   "uid": "99",
+   "gid": "99",
+   "interface": "eth0",
+   "count-threads": "1"
+ }
+}
+
+  /etc/lwsws/conf.d/*
+
+which contains zero or more files describing vhosts, like this
+
+{
+ "vhosts": [
+  { "name": "warmcat.com",
+    "port": "443",
+    "host-ssl-key": "/etc/pki/tls/private/warmcat.com.key",
+    "host-ssl-cert": "/etc/pki/tls/certs/warmcat.com.crt",
