# How to create a dynamic blogging app with HTML, CSS and JS

If you want to build your own blogging app using only HTML, CSS and JS, this tutorial is for you. You will learn how to create a simple but functional blogging app that can display dynamic blog posts, have a dedicated editor for writing blogs, and use Firebase firestore to store and retrieve blog data.

What You Need  
To follow this tutorial, you will need:  
A code editor of your choice  
Node.js and NPM installed on your system  
A Firebase account and project  
Setting Up the Server  
First, we need to set up a Node.js server that will serve our static files and handle file uploads. To do this, follow these steps:  
Create a new folder for your project and open it in your code editor  
Open a terminal and run npm init to initialize NPM in your project  
Install the following packages: express.js, express-fileupload and nodemon  
Create a file named server.js in your project root and import the packages  
Create a variable named initial_path and store the path to your public folder  
Create an express app and use express.static to serve the public folder  
Use app.use(fileupload()) to enable file uploads  
Create a home route that sends the home.html file from the public folder  
Listen on port 3000 and log a message
