Bottleneck? Just asking what's the JS equivalent in convenience for deploying a simple project.

It doesn't need to even look like index.php, just needs to be as convenient, ideally?

Drop-in tools? Examples? I was using PHP drop-in tools back in 2004 but I'm not sure if that's what you mean.

With node, install express, and run `node index.js` and you have a full blown server.

Express and it's spiritual successors are the node "hello world" answers you're after, I think.
