Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 24,840 PointsCan I create the server in my computer with nodeJS(S.O LINUX)?, I need use nodeJS and NGINX?..thank you.
I was reading and found this research:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5009324/node-js-nginx-what-now
I want to know if I can run the server in my computer without workspaces, or maybe the security of linux is the problem, but I am trying to do it without going far away from the courses!

This is a great way to stay along with the coursework without using workspaces.
//Load HTTP module
var http = require("http");
//Create HTTP server and listen on port 8000 for requests
http.createServer(function (request, response) {
// Set the response HTTP header with HTTP status and Content type
response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
// Send the response body "Hello World"
response.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(8000);
// Print URL for accessing server
console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/')
