Overview Node.js is the JavaScript runtime that powers a huge share of modern server-side workloads , REST APIs, GraphQL gateways, real-time WebSocket services, server-side rendered web apps and build tooling. This image delivers Node.js LTS fully installed and ready to serve traffic, with the PM2 process manager and a sample Express application running behind nginx on port 80 from the moment the instance boots.
Application Stack Node.js LTS from the official NodeSource repository, bundled npm, with pnpm and PM2 installed globally. A sample Express + EJS application runs under PM2's pm2-runtime managed by systemd, listening on 127.0.0.1:3000. nginx 1.24 fronts the app on port 80, reverse-proxying dynamic routes and serving static assets directly, and ships with WebSocket upgrade headers wired in so /ws works out of the box.
Secure First Boot On the first boot of every instance a one shot systemd service generates a fresh SESSION_SECRET and a fresh ADMIN_API_KEY, unique to that instance, and writes them to a root only file. No shared or default credentials ship in the image, and the admin endpoint returns 401 until the per-instance key is supplied as the X-Admin-Key header.
Ready To Use Node.js, nginx, PM2 and the sample app are all already running. Browse to the instance address to view the welcome page with live runtime metadata, hit /api/info for a JSON response, or run curl -H 'X-Admin-Key: <KEY>' http://<host>/api/admin from your shell to confirm authenticated access. Replace the sample app with your own by dropping it under /opt/nodeapp/cloudimg or pointing the ecosystem.config.js at a different entry point.

Usage instructions
Connect via SSH on port 22 as the default login user for your operating system variant (the user guide lists it per variant , for the Ubuntu 24.04 AMI it is ubuntu). Node.js, PM2, the sample Express app (cloudimg-app.service) and nginx are already running. On first boot the nodejs-firstboot service writes per-instance credentials to /root/nodejs-credentials.txt (mode 0600). Run sudo cat /root/nodejs-credentials.txt to view the SESSION_SECRET and ADMIN_API_KEY. The sample app is reachable at http://<host>/ , try /api/info for the JSON runtime metadata and curl -H 'X-Admin-Key: <KEY>' http://<host>/api/admin for the authenticated endpoint.
