How to Node
First, you need to have Node.js installed on your computer. You can download it from the official website https://nodejs.org.
Once you have Node.js installed, create a new directory and inside it create a new file named "app.js". Open this file in your code editor.
In the "app.js" file, add the following code:
// This is a simple JavaScript code to print "Hello, World!" in the console
console.log("Hello, World!");
Save the file and navigate to the directory in your terminal/command prompt.
Type in the following command to run the app:
node app.js
You will see the output "Hello, World!" in your terminal.
Congratulations, you have just created your first Node.js app!
Note: console.log()
is a built-in function in Node.js that allows you to print messages to the console. It is similar to the console function in the web browser's developer tools.
