Outputting plain text isn't too exciting. Let's learn how to respond with a HTML document.

See you in the videos!

You seem like a genuinely nice guy, I like that a lot. You teach incredibly well, too. Thank you for helping me learn node!

Every beginner need to watch your video. It is useful to me. Thank you

[AlexTechie]

I spent hours trying to figure this out (fs.readFile(...) and response.write(...)) and researching for how to render files. Thank you!

[JordanRolph]

Thanks Max. You are a great instructor: I've taken a bad node.js course in the past - in comparison yours makes it easy!

For anyone who is having issues where when you type in a different path, your page isn't changing, try looking at npm nodemon. That solved my issue. Restarts the server when a change is made.

You are the best. Another clearly described subject

[samiMan]

Thank you so much, sir. You saved my day.

[HamzaAli-ygon]

Well explained but can you please describe/or suggest how can I include external css, JS and images into with HTML using NodeJS?? All I'm geting through this was displaying html content only??

[smbtecpl]

Ok, you got me hooked. I've signed up for the Udemy Course. Diving straight in...

[HarshSharma-ruip]

Hi, thank you for the great video! I've got one question:
After reading the html file in server.js, is there a way to edit the content of html before sending it to client as a response? Any recommended way of doing this?

The whole picture is I'm trying to write a simple server using Nodejs. It will render a default html to client (browser). In the default html, there are some buttons and options. Clients can send requests using those buttons and options. After receiving requests, the server will modify the content of html file (will need to use data from server side) and send it back as a response.
Am I doing it this correctly? Or there is other preferred ways?
