This guide helps you get started with App Engine and become familiar with
deploying and managing an app. The tasks on this page walk you through the
basics of App Engine, guiding you through the development process.
Each task includes steps that build up to a simple web app
that allows users to submit messages to the server. After you build
your app, you can use the other tutorials to learn how to integrate with other
Google Cloud services and add more features to your app.
This guide is intended for developers who are familiar with basic web
development with Node.js.
