Windows equivalent of 'touch' (i.e. the node.js way to create an index.html)

Question

On a windows machine I get this error

\'touch\' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Answer 1

You can use this command: ECHO >> filename.txt

it will create a file with the given extension in the current folder.

UPDATE:

for an empty file use: copy NUL filename.txt
