I need to run a website on a server. I installed Node.JS and created a server.js file in the project folder and read the index.html file there. The site opens at the address, but the error in the console is Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ‘<‘. And the site does not include styles. How can this problem be solved?

// server.js

var http = require("http");
var fs = require("fs");

const PORT = 8080;

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(PORT);
  }
);

Error:

>Solution :

You are sending the html file in a .js file to the browser. The Problem with the style is caused because you don’t send the css file with. You could use ExpressJs to send the whole directory:
