Treehouse Project ReviewerHi Piotr Manczak ,
When I opened up a Workspace for this video this code was already within my app.js
file, was it not in yours?
var http = require('http');
http.createServer(function (request, response) {
response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
setInterval(function(){
response.write(new Date() + "\n");
}, 1000);
response.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(3000);
console.log('Server running at http://<workspace-url>/');
This worked just fine for me. When it's running, after running node app.js
in the console, you can click the preview (eye) button up top and select port:3000
.
When I copy/pasted the current code on the node.js website I indeed got an error regarding the import
line they provide now.
I would just use the code above that was provided to continue along with the course and you should be just fine 👍
