# Create and Run a html page in nodejs in Windows OS
n this blog, I’m explaining how to create an html page in [nodejs](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/640/download-install-and-setup-environment-for-nodejs-in-windows-os-64-bit) and run in [browser](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/155254/which-is-the-best-internet-browser).\
1. Let's start with the server module. Create the file server.js in the root [directory](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/226/how-to-get-application-directory-using-c-sharp-csharp) of [your project](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/156583/best-way-to-link-bootstrap-file-in-your-project), and fill it with the following code:
```
var http = require('http'), fs = require('fs'); fs.readFile('./index.html', function (err, html) { if (err) { throw err; } http.createServer(function (request, response) { response.writeHeader(200, { "Content-Type": "text/html" }); response.write(html); response.end(); }).listen(8888);});
```
2. Create a html page “index.html” write code
```
Hello World
```
1. Open [command](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/178/synchronous-and-asynchronous-command-execution-in-c-sharp-dot-net) prompt and go to your file location.
2. [Execute](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/49/how-can-i-execute-a-php-script-using-command-line) your server.js file like this\
Now start your server…
1. Now, open your browser and point it at http://localhost:8888/. This should display a [web page](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/718/sql-server-report-alignment-to-center-of-web-page) that says "[Hello World](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/12912/how-to-show-hello-world-backbone-marionette-js)".
Output
