The 'meat' of the "article" is
webby# curl -O http://nodejs.org/dist/node-v0.2.0.tar.gz
webby# tar xvzf node-v0.2.0.tar.gz
webby# cd node-v0.2.0
webby# ./configure
webby# make
webby# make install
Which I think most people who can read docs can work out.
- DTrejo 16y agoI did say it was for noobs. Main useful bits: * cheap host, $10/month, root access so no configuration headaches. My search didn't turn up many of those, and the node hosting wiki page is non-obvious: http://github.com/ry/node/wiki/Hosting/_edit http://github.com/ry/node/wiki/Hosting/_edit (and only just added webbynode to the list) * how to set up that machine in particular * points to other helpful resources once node is installed

- Rauchg_ 16y agoYou have to understand that most people are used to PHP and ./configure --with-abc --with-xyz --with-123=/in/some/place --without-something-else --disable-module --without-this-thing --and-everything-is-inconsistent and then debugging paths, dependencies, realizing after 20 minutes of compilation that they're actually missing a module, editing php.ini and calling the president. It's cool that articles like these actually highlight how easy deployment can be with Node. Thanks DTrejo!
- vog 16y ago> Which I think most people who can read docs can work out. I'd rather say: This is what people can work out without reading the doc. :-) However, to be fair: The article links to various other articles which contain the "real" introduction, i.e. how to use node.js after it is installed.
