Express-js can’t GET my static files, why?

by

Try http://localhost:3001/default.css.

To have /styles in your request URL, use:

app.use("/styles", express.static(__dirname + '/styles'));

Look at the examples on this page:

//Serve static content for the app from the "public" directory in the application directory.

    // GET /style.css etc
    app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));

// Mount the middleware at "/static" to serve static content only when their request path is prefixed with "/static".

    // GET /static/style.css etc.
    app.use('/static', express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
