The installation of a new Express.js 4 application is not behaving well with the socket.io package. Therefore, this repo can be used as a working starting point of any Express.js + socket.io project.
Contains the same stuff as what express newProject would generate, with socket.io working.
npm install
npm start
npm install
set DEBUG=generator-ejs:server
npm start
Try to connect to http://localhost:3000/.
generator-ejs:server Socket.io user connected should appear in the console.
