HTTPS on node.js issue - node.js

I am very new to Node and I'm trying to install a SSL certificate. Ordered one online and I got two files:
domain.com.ca-bundle
domain.crt
How should I go about installing the certificate on Node.js server?
After reading through this guide I found that we need one more additional which is private.key so I'm trying to understand how to go about it.
I'd really appreciate any inputs on how to proceed. Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask.
Environment:
I run Debian 9 on my VPS with Node.js installed.

Create-React-App on Lightsail: DNS and SSL issues

I'm trying to deploy a CRA on Lightsail and I'm having issues with the SSL cert and DNS.
I have tested the A record with no errors. http://52.40.123.5:3000/ displays my react app but abechoi.com does not, even if I click on advanced.
I added "homepage": "http://abechoi.com", no change.
As for the SSL, I found a free cert.pem and key.pem off a website and I tried running "HTTPS=true SSL_CRT_FILE=cert.pem SSL_KEY_FILE=key.pem npm start", no change, possibly because the domain name has issues.
Anyways, if anyone could offer some kind of help, I would greatly appreciate it. From what I've read AWS Amplify is easier but I want more experience working my way around a Linux CLI.
You can issue a Free SSL using let's encrypt and then use it for your node command line:

ignore the Wordpress part here, you just need to get the pem files and hook it to node

How to install SSL on node.js server

I bought SSL Cert from hostgator.in and they have installed it in my linux server. But how do I enable it using node.js code?
After reading Sangs link I would also recommend looking trough the official Nodejs docs for how to implement TSL/SSL.

How to install nodejs in cpanel shared hosting(linux based)

I created chatting application in nodejs and want to run nodejs server on cpanel linux based hosting. Someone please guide me, or give me step wise instructions to run it.
I don't think it's possible with shared hosting. Unless they explicitly mention they support it.

Using Let's encript SSL certificates on OpenShift for node app

I have a node/socket.io chat app on OpenShift. The directory layout is the following:
I would like to start using SSL on the site, specifically with Let's Encrypt, which is free. However, no matter how many tutorials I Google and try out (on a separate hosting for testing, of course), I simply can't make it work properly.
I'm sure to some this is a silly question, but I'd appreciate if someone could tell me how to do this with OpenShift.
If anyone knows of an easy to understand, step by step tutorial, I would appreciate a link.

Deploying Meteor App to Wampp stack

I am wondering if you can deploy Meteor apps to a Windows based Wampp stack... Such as The Uniform Server.
I am wanting to upgrade a project to Meteor that is running on a small internal network. I plan on using the existing mysql database.
I'm not quite sure on how deploying works. I know it creates a tarball, but does this just unzip into the www folder on the server? I will also have Node installed.
I'm new to this whole node.js environment. That's not an actual server that can be used for production is it? It's a bit confusing. I've only ever used wampp stacks. I can't use anything but windows, so Linux is outta the question for a server.
Thanks in advance.

WAMP stands for Windows, Apache, MySQL, and PHP.
Meteor uses Node.js, not PHP.
Support for other databases are coming - See the roadmap
See this question
NodeJS apparently works on Windows - here are the two top Google links.
tl;dr No
