Build lightweight, production-ready HTTP REST APIs with proper port binding and error handling. ## Steps 1. Initialize your Express or Fastify project and define routes in dedicated handler modules. 2. Read assigned service port from process.env.PORT with fallback: const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000; 3. Bind server to all network interfaces: app.listen(PORT, "0.0.0.0", () => { ... }); 4. Implement graceful shutdown handlers for SIGTERM and SIGINT signals. 5. Upload application files to your NodeFlux application container. 6. Set startup command to npm start or node server.js. 7. Test your endpoints using curl or Postman against your assigned node host and port. ## Notes - Binding to 0.0.0.0 is mandatory inside container environments so external traffic routes correctly. - Fastify offers up to 2x higher request throughput per CPU core compared to Express.
