title: Serve static file using App Engine
body: <p>I created an App Engine application. Till now, I only have a few HTML files to serve. What can I do to make App Engine serve the index.html file whenever someone visits <a href="http://example.appengine.com/" rel="noreferrer">http://example.appengine.com/</a> ?</p>
  
  <p>Currently, my app.yaml file looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>application: appname
  version: 1
  runtime: python
  api_version: 1
  
  handlers:
  
  - url: /
    static_dir: static_files
  </code></pre>
