How to make MEAN droplet run on port 80?

Posted on July 28, 2015

The title says it all. I want to make this run on port 80.

I tried this command NODE_ENV=production PORT=80 grunt, but it only displays a blank screen.

Is there something else that needs to be setup? Express possibly?

You should not run MEAN directly over port 80, use Nginx as a proxy for it, is more secure and reliable.
