hot new top

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.send('Hello Express app!')
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('server started');
});

this is an example server using express

@ch1ck3n thanks for reply.i didn't expected it so soon.
I was using port 80 which is localhost.
Do i need to install npm and nodemon packages?

@akkshayTandon If you're gonna host on replit you have to use 3000 as the port

and no, it should automatically install it for you.

@ch1ck3n ok, thanks for helping.

@akkshayTandon can you press the checkmark next to my name if it helped

The host has to be 0.0.0.0, not 127.0.0.1. Also, to use nodemon, some configuration is required.
