I'm about to became insane looking for it, most of the examples shows only how to run it on linux terminal and just the communication with the server. Can someone PLEASE explain to me how I can use NodeJs (make it run and load whatever is needed) in Windows 7?

and PLEASE, how can I integrate it with my HTML5 code?

I really appreciate your answers

    remember once you have installed node js you will probably need to restart your computer.After that node js is available from the command prompt. – Akshat Jiwan Sharma Mar 11 '13 at 05:51

    @AkshatJiwanSharma Thanks for the tip! I had to restart my PC after installing `node.js` to be able to use it from the command prompt. I created an issue on the project's GitHub page to change the MSI to force a restart at the end of installation. https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/5591 – Jesse Webb May 29 '13 at 19:32
  • Actually I don't think you have to restart your computer to get Windows working with Node.js. You actually just need to close your dos/command window and reopen a new one to refresh the environment variables that node needs to find itself in the path.. (I just installed it and that worked for me). – Steve Midgley Jun 04 '13 at 03:42

  • I don't blame OP. This was my first search result on Google. This awkward situation could have been avoided if there was actually a Getting Started section on the NodeJS website, but nooo. – Krummelz Sep 17 '13 at 16:59

To download Node, go to nodejs.org, click “Download”, and click “Windows Installer”. This will give you a Windows Installer (MSI) file that will install Node and npm.

The article contains a hello world tutorial.
