Command name is createServer and here is sample code -

File: myfile.js

var http = require("http");
var server = http.createServer(function(request, response) {
  response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/html"});
  response.write("<!DOCTYPE "html">");
  response.write("<html>");
  response.write("<head>");
  response.write("<title>Hello World Page</title>");
  response.write("</head>");
  response.write("<body>");
  response.write("Hello World!");
  response.write("</body>");
  response.write("</html>");
  response.end();
});

server.listen(80);
console.log("Server is listening");

Start the server

node myfile.js

Now connect to server as http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 from the browser.
