You can clone/fork the project from github. So, the app is composed by 2 views, one for uploading the a picture and one for showing the gallery: Moreover, this time the server has a more important role compared to the previous apps so I am going to share more pieces of code in this post. Thus, we are using Jade (now Pug), a very cool and efficient template engine for Node.js. To do so, we have to find a way to efficiently pass these parameters to the client so a template engine is the perfect candidate. We will need to keep a secret string in the server side and use it to create credentials for our pictures and pick function. You can emulate the live reload behavior of front-end frameworks such as React and Angular in Express templates using Browsersync.The app is not too different from the ImageStack Image Gallery app we made before, however, the implementation is very different as we are going to secure our uploader. Add Live Reload to Express Using Browsersync To overcome that, you'll use Browsersync. However, manually refreshing the browser to see updates slows down your development process. pug template, you can refresh the browser to see the changes. 🛠️ Refresh the browser to see the new page rendered on the screen. Refer to Using template engines with Express for more details. pug doesn't use title locally instead, the template it extends, layout. json file to run nodemon and delete the test script: defines a local title variable in index. 🛠️ Create a dev script command in your package. The command above is the equivalent of running npm install -save -dev nodemon.
🛠️ As such, install nodemon as a development dependency: npm i -D nodemon You'll use nodemon to monitor your project source code and automatically restart your Node.js server whenever it changes. js: touch index.js Create an npm script to run the application 🛠️ Then, create the entry point of the application, a file named index. 🛠️ Execute the following command within the whatabyte -portal directory to initialize your Node.js project with default settings: npm init -y 🛠️ Create a project directory named whatabyte -portal anywhere in your system and make it your current directory: mkdir whatabyte-portal If you need to install Node.js and npm, use any of the official Node.js installers provided for your operating system. We tested this tutorial using Node.js v12. You'll build a login portal for a restaurant named WHATABYTE using server-side rendering (SSR):
Look for the 🛠️️ emoji if you'd like to skim through the content while focusing on the build steps. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to build a simple and clean Node.js server-side rendered application using the Express framework and Pug templates styled with CSS.Īs a bonus, you'll learn how to streamline your Node.js development workflow by using nodemon to restart the server and browser -sync to reload the browser whenever relevant source files change.
