How to choose ASP.NET hosting with node.js support?

Question

Angular

I mainly write in ASP.NET. I worked a little with Angular 1, but now, judging by what they write everywhere, including on the toaster, it’s worth switching to Angular 2-4 or React. Angular 2, judging by the docs, doesn’t live without node.js at all, but React lives, but you can’t connect any JSX to it anymore. Actually, I decided to make the next project on ASP.NET + Angular 2 or React. I opened the documentation for them - and in both almost immediately they write that it is necessary to install node.js (why should client frameworks also have a server one for the heap - FIG knows, but it is necessary - it means it is necessary).

Question: are there Windows shared hostings where it is possible to use .NET + (Angular 2 || React), or is it just VDS/VPS?

Answer 1

Angular is not needed in node.

Answer 2

node.js is needed for build tools, angular-cli and react-cli use webpack to build the app, once built, node is not needed for the app to work. But finding a free good hosting for ASP.Net is a problem. it’s easier to take a virtual server (fortunately, the prices are almost the same), with Docker support, for example, ASP.Net Core can be perfectly preserved in Docker containers and applications are deployed in a couple of clicks.
