alias server='open http://localhost:8000 && python -m SimpleHTTPServer'

This feature is very useful when you are working in local host with a browser that disables by default the origin load (i.e. Chrome).

after inserted the alias inside the.bash_profile, refresh with the following command

source ~/.bash_profile

or restart you terminal. Now in the path of your project typeserverto open the web server.
