If I decided to host express project on github - would it work?

Hi guys! If I decided to host express project on github - would it work? And what exactly should I upload to server? What files? Should I upload node_modules?

Hi Michael,

As far as I am aware it wouldn't. Github pages only works for static sites.

You could however, host it on something like Heroku, which has a free tier that may be suitable.

To host on Heroku, you can upload the files to Github and point Heroku to your repository.

Hope this helps :)
