How to store and receive files on the server and get them using get, wget requests?

Question

Apache HTTP Server

I need a server to store files on it and periodically receive them via HTTP.
I don't know how to do it, perhaps through Apache, but how to make a link and get the required file upon request?
And yes, there is Yandex.Disk, DropBox, but I need the files to be on a local server.

Here's the simplest thing. For example, in the local XAMPP server there is a htdocs folder, we put the files there, start the server, create a link through localhost ( http://localhost/filename.txt , check: the file should be downloaded in the browser using this link) and do a GET to this link - request with wget or whatever.
