Can I use Node.js on a hosting package?

Node.js support can be enabled upon request on your Web or Reseller Hosting package.
Currently supported versions are 16, 18, and 20.


Using Node.js:


🔹 Node.js can be used via the command line by establishing an SSH connection to your hosting package.
( *See also: * Connecting via SSH (Hosting))


⚠️ Important to note:


  • Only backend applications can be run.
  • It is not possible to open custom ports for running a Node.js application on a different port.
  • Running a Node.js application instead of the webserver on port 80 is not supported.


💡 If you require a Node.js application to run on a custom port, we recommend purchasing a Managed VPS package.
