Express
Combine filters →Express is a thin layer over Node’s own HTTP server, so hosting it is hosting Node.js: a process kept alive behind a proxy, restarted when it exits. There is no build step to speak of and no framework-specific machinery for a provider to support. A host naming Express is describing its audience rather than a capability the others lack.
5 providers document support for Express, listed alphabetically. Mostly platform as a service, serverless and static hosting, of 4 categories in all. 116 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way.

Do I need special hosting for Express?
In most cases, no. Express runs on any host that supports its runtime. This list is shorter than that: it holds the providers that document Express themselves, with an installer, a guide or a maintained image. Other hosts may run it without mentioning it.
What should I check before hosting Express?
The runtime versions on offer, how deploys work, whether there is a shell for command-line tools, where cron jobs run, and which databases come managed. Check backups too, and how to move away later.
Who is the best Express hosting provider?
No idea. We list hosts, we don't rate them. Open the records that look close and compare them side by side; the guide says where to start.
