Node.js is built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine and one of the popular open-source JavaScript runtime environments, which can be used to create a blogging website, upload files and create a TCP App on ECS. In this article, you will get some useful information on these.
Before you start the process, you will need a machine running a linux/unix distribution such as ubuntu or macOS, a code editor/IDE node.js installed on it and a basic working knowledge of node.js.
To begin, create a directory where you would like to store your application. For this tutorial, we will create our application in ~/nodejs-tcp-app
.
In this tutorial, we will be doing most of our work with the terminal and also, use nano editor
in the terminal ensuring the process remains the same for all the platforms.
To start, open your terminal:
mkdir ~/nodejs-tcp-app
