Typical location for the Node.js in cPanel

let's assume a node.js developer has an account called "user" on your whm server and they followed the cpanel guide to creating a test node.js application. where would you find the node.js test script?

In a cPanel environment, when a user sets up a Node.js application following the cPanel guide, the typical location for the Node.js application script or entry point is within the user's home directory. Specifically, you would commonly find it in the public_html directory or a subdirectory within public_html.

Here is a general path structure:
/home/user/public_html/your_nodejs_app/

Within the specified directory (your_nodejs_app/ in this example), you should find the main script file, often named app.js or server.js, or another file specified as the entry point in the package.json file.

If the user has followed the cPanel guide accurately, the exact path and name of the script file would depend on their choices during the setup process.

Additionally, cPanel might provide specific interfaces or tools for managing and configuring Node.js applications. You may want to check the cPanel interface for sections related to Node.js, where users can configure and manage their Node.js applications. The script's location and details are often specified during the setup process or can be managed through the cPanel interface.
