I wanted to know if there's a way to render a page in Node.js and then after 2 seconds redirect to another page. Something among the lines :

app.get('/thankyou',function(req,res){
    res.render('thankyou' {message : 'Thank you for your submission'});

    //after 2 seconds

    res.redirect('nextpage');
});

You will have to do it in the template. The server code bees:

app.get('/thankyou',function(req,res){
    res.render('thankyou' {message : 'Thank you for your submission'});
});

And in the template add:

<script>
  setTimeout(function () {
     // after 2 seconds
     window.location = "/next-page";
  }, 2000)
</script>
