Hey so I'm working through the tutorial for writing an app with Meteor on a Windows laptop. The localhost:3000 is not loading my app. Curious if anybody has an idea as to solutions? thanks

This worked for me:
Open command prompt/terminal and change the working directory to your app directory(simple-todos in my case). So,
cd simple-todos
Setup port for your meteor app:
meteor --port 3000
Or a different port using:
meteor --port 3030
If you have a settings file (settings.json) for the meteor app, you can start the app using the command below:
meteor --settings settings.json
If successfully created the port, you will get a response like this:
[[[[[ ~/public_html/simple-todos ]]]]]
=> Started proxy.
=> Started MongoDB.
=> Started your app.=> App running at: http://localhost:3000/

In my config 127.0.0.1:3000 is working as well. However, I found out that I have a different configuration in my hosts file. I have set 127.0.0.1 to www.localhost.com (because I'm also running Magento locally, which needs this).
www.localhost.com:3000 is working for me.

Try 127.0.0.1:3000
. I had the same problem (although I am on a mac) this morning. Localhost wouldn't run. Switched to 127.0.0.1
and it works.

0.0.0.0:3000
or meteor --port 3030
(set the port 3030).
And check your mongodb/node
install.
