Install Node https://nodejs.org/en/
Also install Git https://git-scm.com/
1. Create folder (testapp) in c:\
c:\testapp
2. Create index.js and index.html
3. Open cmd prompt and type command cd c:\testapp
c:\testapp
4. Next type command
npm install socketio
npm install express
To check node is installed just type npm in cmd prompt
Next type command npm init
Hit enter with required data
type yes at end
This will create package.json file
Copy the code in each file index.js and index.html
index.js
