Will only run in a Javascript environment, so they need to be compiled into a Javascript file, and that file needs to be served to the browser - where it can run.
You also need to serve up javascript files that represent other dependent Fantom pods, like dom, graphics, and sys - and don't forget the TimeZone database needed for logging!
So there's a lot more web server work that needs to be done just to get those 2 little lines to run in a browser.
I would look at this domkit example as a quick start project and see if that helps any.
I have written a suite of libraries that vastly simplify the process, namely the BedSheet app server and the Duvet library - but I am reticent to recommend these to you as I feel that, for your current level, they may just confuse and hinder rather than help.

I get the idea SlimerDude. Indeed there's a lot of work to be done in those two lines of code.
I have been doing some web tutorials with your BedSheet library.
Sometimes my fear with third-party libraries is that when you stop developing it for whatever reasons (I hope it doesn't come to that), users may not be able to use the library again.
I have been following your tutorials on the alien factory site. Thank you for all the help you are offering. I have really learnt a lot from there. Kindly give us more, especially beginners.
More so, I used the Slim library for rendering some pages. It seems a little slow. That's why I decided to use the core Fantom library, not knowing so many things are hidden....
I am grateful for the time you have for all my queries. Regards.

Having done some tutorials on HTML DOM interface, I decided to practice same in Fantom. But I get the error sys::UnknownTypeErr: dom::WinPeer.
Please this is my code:
... Void onIndex() { res.headers["Content-Type"] = "text/html; charset=utf-8" out := res.out out.docType out.html out.body .p("id='demo'").w("Hello") out.script doc := Win.cur.doc doc.elemById("demo").text= "Hello World" out.scriptEnd out.bodyEnd.htmlEnd }I have added the dom pod to my build.fan file.
Please any help? Thank you.

Hi
small_petit,There's a lot more going on that you need to be aware of.
The lines:
