Question

Just started learning node js in my school. They gave us this half-finished task and i need to make the next and prev buttons work. However i get some errors in the console

Answer 1

Well this is what i had to do if it helps anyone in the future at all. This is all basic stuff but i am beginner so here we go. Open command prompt. Go to the destination of your project( where the index.js file is ) and write:

$ npm init -y
$ npm install -g express-generator
$ npm install express -S
$ npm install connect -S
$ npm install serve-static -S

then go to the destination of your server.js file and write

$ node server.js

After this i could run my page in browser typing http://localhost:8080/ in the URL.
