The express-generator package helps a lot in the development of web applications with Node, because it generates the skeleton of an application. A small disadvantage is that, when generating the code, we do not know how to change some very basic things, for example, the port on which the app listens (the default port is 3000). In this post I will show you how to change the port in some app generated by express-generator. ...

I know that there are really more differences especially with the licenses, but that is another topic and you can search it in Google if you wish. ...
