Mixing
Removing express and http from this socket.io example
This is the example app found on the socket.io website:
var app = require('express')();
var http = require('http').Server(app);
var io = require('socket.io')(http);
app.get('/', function(req, res){
res.sendFile(__dirname + '/index.html');
});
io.on('connection', function(socket){
console.log('a user connected');
});
http.listen(3000, function(){
console.log('listening on *:3000');
});
What if I truncate it to the following, removing the instances of http and express? What difference does it make writing the app this way instead?
const io = require("socket.io");
const server = io.listen(3000);
server.on("connection", function(socket) {
console.log("user connected");
socket.emit("welcome", "welcome man");
});
node.js http express socket.io

I assume while connection to your port would be established, the contents of the app (currently at default /) would not show.
