I don't remember any web server code. Squeak has several and it would be
easy to borrow one, but depending on your needs it is probably not worth
the trouble. One of the first examples I coded in Self for my trainees
(ten years ago) was a trivial web server which always returned a
constant page, just so they could see some result in an external web
browser.

No, but if stuff has gone missing then it would a good idea to set one
up.
