    httputils "github.com/thewizardplusplus/go-http-utils"
)

func main() {
    // use the standard logger for error handling
    logger := stdlog.New(os.Stderr, "", stdlog.LstdFlags)
    staticAssetHandler := httputils.StaticAssetHandler(
        http.Dir("/var/www/example.com"),
        // wrap the standard logger via the github.com/go-log/log package
