I cant get the install done...
I uploaded everything to my server with filezilla but nothing happens....
So i looked into it, seems this isn't even php/mysql ? lol.. but i have to say this is the nicest forum software ive ever seen! Want to get this thing online asap, someone can explain me how to do? I looked into the docs but i dont get it... even i dont know wich os .. im running on a webhost by a provider,
usually i had vanilla forums going on, but thats some strange buggy code. Then yesterday i jumped back into the phpbb game with 3.1 seems not to be my thing...
this looks fresh and i think my users are gonna like it very much!
sorry for my bad english, some words are hard for me
from the netherlands,
thanks!

I'm gonna have to say it's very unlikely unless they have a control panel that allows you to install nodejs and node modules. You pretty much need shell access.
There are some very cheap/free hosts offering node that are mentioned in various places on the forums here if you want to give that a whirl.

As long as your system has enough RAM to be able to handle Redis, it would be fine. Of course, if it's a Linux machine that also makes things a lot easier, though of course setting NodeBB up on Windows/Mac OSX is possible as well (albeit a bit trickier and with more weird edge cases).
(P.S. hello fellow Dutchie! :)) -
@Gerry, I would recommend setting up a VPS from our hosting provider. By using our referral link, you'll get two months free at their lowest plan, and NodeBB runs very very well on the lowest plan
Then you can try using the coupon code
10TOSHIP
and maybe you'll get another $10 voucher... give it a try and let us know! -

If you're not already running a Linux machine, download VMWare Player (free for non-commercial use) and Ubuntu (I recommend using the server distro) and then follow the installation docs.
I run my forum on a VM with 1GB of RAM and it's massive overkill.

NodeBB can be installed for windows by following this guide
