I assume that you are asking about how to host a node.js application in a Docker container...

These 2 articles seem like relatively-easy-to-use explanations of hosting your node application(s) in a Docker container: (Deploy That NodeJs App to a Docker Container – Dean Slama Jr – Medium[^]) and (Dockerizing a Node.js web app | Node.js[^]).

If you are not familiar with Dockerfiles, then I think you should work through the Docker hello world working on your target platform first (https://hub.docker.com/_/hello-world/[^]).
