expressjsHow do I set up an Express.js engine for my web application?
Setting up an Express.js engine for your web application is a relatively simple process.
- Install the Express.js module:
$ npm install express
-
Create a
server.jsfile in the root of your project directory. -
Require the Express.js module in the
server.jsfile:
const express = require('express');
- Create an instance of Express.js in the
server.jsfile:
const app = express();
-
Set up routes and middleware in the
server.jsfile. -
Set the port for the server to listen on:
const port = 3000;
- Start the server:
app.listen(port);
You should now have a basic Express.js engine set up for your web application.
