Node JS Tutorial | HTTP Server REPL HERE
First lets install Node in our environment. I’m using A Debian distro.

node -v
sudo apt install npm
Next lets use the HTTP Module

http.createServer(function (req, res) {
res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'});
res.write('Hello World!');
res.end();
}).listen(8080);
We now have a running HTTP server.
Well, that’s it were done. Super simple HTTP server in Node. We should see a basic HTML page being served with “HELLO WORLD” as output. Check out the next tutorial and we will template an HTML page for our server to serve.
I was just telling my friend about that.
