NodeJS is a server-side Javascript runtime environment which aims to assist in the building of light websites, but most importantly, scalable. For example, you may wish to use NodeJS to build real-time, high-traffic applications.

At 20i, it's available as a one-click install for those with Managed Hosting.

To enable NodeJS you'll need to:

  • Login to your 20i account.
  • After logging in, go to the Manage VPS section of the control panel.
  • After selecting 'Manage', a list of applications and software will be on the right-hand side of the page under VPS Software.
  • From this point, select the slider to install .NodeJS (installation may take a minute or two).
