Basic Node and Express - Serve Static Assets

JavaScript
1

hi, I have tried all the methods explained and took help with the hint but nothing seems to work for me,
CODE:

app.get(“/”, (req, res) => {
absolutePath = __dirname + ‘/views/index.html’;
res.sendFile(absolutePath);
});

app.use(express.static( ‘/public’));
// I tried it this way too…
app.use(‘/public’, express.static( __dirname + “/public”));

Below is the error I am getting:
// running tests Your app should serve asset files from the

/public
```directory to the

/public

path // tests completed // console output [Error: Not Found]
