High Quality JavaScript Framework Libraries for Node.JS

Quick Hello Server

Place the following code into an empty JavaScript file, example: app.js.

const HyperText = require('kado/lib/HyperText')
const app = require('kado').getInstance()
const http = new HyperText.HyperTextServer()
app.http.addEngine('http', http.createServer(app.router))
app.get('/', (req, res) => { res.end('Hello') })
app.start().then(() => app.listen())

After saving the file, execute the code by running the following command from the same folder as the JavaScript file.

node app

Once the command has executed, a web server that says "Hello" will be available on port 3000 of your local machine, example: http://localhost:3000.

See kado.org for more guides and examples.
