Course Description

This course is designed to help beginners setup a localhost on their computers quickly and easily using a terminal, node.js and node package manager.  There is overview of simple command line commands how to do things within the terminal as well.  This is something that I had several students asking for so here it is, I hope you enjoy it.

A localhost is necessary to avoid the file protocol which can be problematic with ajax when testing code locally

There is an easy solution which is live-server, this is setup in minutes and all you need to do it navigate to the directory you want to have as your root of the local server and type live-server.  It immediately launches a localhost with the current file directory as the root.  

Spend less time setting up and more writing code and enjoying your code in action.

Perfect for beginners who need an easy solution quickly!

Taught by an instructor with many years of web development experience ready to help you learn and answer any questions you may have.

The websites in the video are outdated so I muddled through a bit. I got it working so there is that. I have over 30 years IT so noobs might struggle a lot more. Thanks for the course though. It helped me achieve the main goal of getting NodeJS working and a local server to use it :)
