Static webpages are fairly simple with express. This could be useful for building your own portfolio website or blog, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To serve a static webpage from the "views" folder you can use code such as:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
const express = require("express");
|
||
|
|
const app = express();
|
||
|
|
app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/views"));
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
