Once you have WebStorm installed, fire up the IDE and we can create our first Node.js Express application using the Jade template engine.Ĭlick “Create New Project” from the welcome screen.Įnter a project name, project location and choose “Node.js Express App” as the project type. Also ensure you’ve already installed node.js over at. If you are ready to see how WebStorm and Express make Node.js development fast and enjoyable, go to and download and install the trial version. Before diving into the WebStorm IDE and Express, I suggest you go through the Node Beginner Book tutorial so that you have a better understanding of the core Node.js platform.

In this post I’ll be explain how to quickly get up and running with Node.js and Express, a great web application framework for Node.js that handles a good bit of the plumbing described in the Node Beginner Book such as building a request router.
Manuel Kiessling’s Node Beginner Book goes through a great Node.js tutorial and explains in detail how to call long running processes (such as a database query or disk I/O operation) and not cause the request to block other operations. To achieve high concurrency and scalability, Node.js leverages JavaScript’s event loop and function callbacks for longer running processes so that complex concurrent thread locking logic is not required. Node.js is a popular framework for building scalable server-side applications in JavaScript.
