I'm kinda new to intellij idea.
The node.js project template with intellij IDEA is a node.js express project — which is nice (you get web server hooked up to run your project with, etc), but with all sorts of ugly stuff in it like jade. I just want a no-frills, no nonsense node.js project... even http is optional.
I could see wanting a node.js project with basic web handling stuff like: body-parser, cookie-parser, serve-favicon, method-override, and morgan (which does http logging) — but that is really a bonus question/question for another day. Right now I just want a project template where I can press run afterwards and see the output on a console or something.
