Basic Node Webserver Template

This is the starter template I use whenever I create a new webserver for a node server. This creates a basic webserver wrapper around the standard express server functionality. This lets you get up and running with a basic static website in seconds, with easy customizations to the specific functionality you need, such as Authorization.

Run this demo app

gh repo clone stephenlindauer/basic-node-webserver-template
cd basic-node-webserver-template
npm install
npm run start

Open http://localhost:8080/ in your browser

Basic usage for your own server

import BasicWebServer from "./BasicWebServer";

new BasicWebServer().start();

This listens on port 8080 by default. If you want to listen on a different port, just pass it to the BasicWebServer constructor:

new BasicWebServer(9000).start();
