    How to get to use a single line server call when you're running JavaScript files

1) if not already installed, install node.


to check if node is installed type "node" into your command line.
if you get the following message, node is not installed:


bash: node: command not found
    

2) open your command line for your computer and type:
  
curl https://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
  npm install http-server -g
3) that's it. Now navigate to your project run http-server
 on your command line, open up (localhost://8080)[localhost://8080] and your index.html will automatically be running on the server.
