How to enable node.js server on my website?

[FloloGames]

Hey I am new to netlifly and I want to create my own chat server with node js and socket io. I found this respository on github.
I have uploaded the folder to the website to test whether it works.
But there are some problems:

And do I have to change the localhost:3000 to the domain address?

Thanks in advance
