javascript - Publishing website along with nodejs backend and mysql database

Question

Ok this my sound silly but i have no clue on how to publish node.js backend for website i made. I am new at this and i know how to publish a website there are plenty of websites that offer hosting and domain for some amount of money but i don't know about backend. For example let's say i have node.js backend that reads data from MySQL database and sends it to my local-hosted website. And let's say i have nodemon package installed so i run it with nodemon and everything works fine. My question is how to publish this nodejs app along with my website and database.

Answer 1

You should get a VPS (Virtual Private Server) with Docker, It is the best solution.

• Just copy your node folder and put it on a node docker image!
• Got html front end? Just put it on an nginx docker image.
• MySQL too, almost everything is possible with docker!
