In this lesson we will find out how to serve static assets (images, css, stylesheets, etc.) with Express. We will go over writing initial boilerplate for a simple Express app, and using Express‘s built-in middleware to serve these assets through a web server on Node.js.

const path = require(‘path‘);
const express 
 
= require(‘express‘);
const app = express();

app.use(‘/images‘, express.static(path.join(__dirname, ‘public/images‘)));

app.listen(8080);
