Is it possible to make a webserver that i can wget files from?

So i was watching this CTF blocky from hackthebox walkthrough and i see that this guy, after getting in wordpress and phpmyadmin he got user info, then reverse shelled with netcat and managed to log in. But something really cool happened when he was privilage escalating. He downloaded linpeas and linux exploit suggestor from his own python webserver that he made with his vpn ip and then wget *linpeas*. How can i make such webserver that i can download files and stuff from it? And is it possible at least ? Is this something that people were doing and i didin't know? cuz it's really cool
