Answer 1

1.) Install nginx

2.) Proxy forward nginx to your node port. See Digital Oceans How-To.

nginx.conf

 server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    location / {
                 proxy_pass http://localhost:9000;
                 proxy_http_version 1.1;
                 proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
                 proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
                 proxy_set_header Host $host;
                 proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
    }
}

3.) Start app.js with node in your dist folder with the correct variables:

$ export NODE_ENV=production; export PORT=9000; node dist/server/app.js

4.) Browse to the hostname configured in nginx in step 2.

In case you get many 404's you most likely are using angular.js in HTML5 mode and need to re-wire your routes to serve static angular.js content. I described this and how-to tackle many other bugs that you may face in my blog article: "Continous Integration with Angular Fullstack".
