Tutorial Contents

the tools we need are

• Node.js
• Notepad ++, this is useful for editing html type files
• Command Prompt, to give commands and check status

after having the following tools let's start the tutorial

• the first step is to create a folder with the name according to your needs, then open the folder and create again a new folder, as in the photo above for example, I created a folder on the desktop.
  

• then open the new folder, and create 3 new text document, then change the text document format to html. here I created a file with html format with the name about, contact, and home. you can see the photo above.

• then open the html file using Notepad ++ to create the html framework, do one by one of the three html files. then make the contents of the file about html and save, you can see the photo above.
  

then continue by opening the contact.html and home.html files. then create contents like the photo above and save

• after you save and return to the main folder, here I use sample-folder website as the main folder, then create the text document again and change the format to js. edit the file format .js like in the photo above then save.

• Then to test the html we use Command Prompt, you can find the command prompt program on the Start menu and Search Command Prompt. Give cd desktop command on command prompt, then cd sample-website (name your main folder), then node sample website.js. If the way and the code you use is correct it will look like the photo above

Then continue by creating localhost on the static-website.js file. and you can change listen code to as needed. here I change listen to 8654. you can see the example of the localhost manufacture like the photo above. then save

Then check the activation of localhost at the command prompt, if true then it will look like the photo above, and you can directly google to see the result, type "localhost: 8654" on google and it will look like the photo below :
