+
+If you opt out of Ivy and your application uses  [Angular Universal](guide/universal) to render Angular applications on the server, you must also change the way the server performs bootstrapping.
+
+The following example shows how you modify the `server.ts` file to provide the `AppServerModuleNgFactory` as the bootstrap module.
+
+* Import `AppServerModuleNgFactory` from the `app.server.module.ngfactory` virtual file.
+* Set `bootstrap: AppServerModuleNgFactory` in the `ngExpressEngine` call.
+
+<code-example language="typescript" header="server.ts">
+import 'zone.js/dist/zone-node';
+
+import { ngExpressEngine } from '@nguniversal/express-engine';
+import * as express from 'express';
+import { join } from 'path';
+
+import { APP_BASE_HREF } from '@angular/common';
+
+import { AppServerModuleNgFactory } from './src/app/app.server.module.ngfactory';
+
+// The Express app is exported so that it can be used by serverless Functions.
+export function app() {
+  const server = express();
+  const distFolder = join(process.cwd(), 'dist/ivy-test/browser');
+
+  // Our Universal express-engine (found @ https://github.com/angular/universal/tree/master/modules/express-engine)
+  server.engine('html', ngExpressEngine({
+    bootstrap: AppServerModuleNgFactory,
+  }));
+
+  server.set('view engine', 'html');
+  server.set('views', distFolder);
+
+  // Example Express Rest API endpoints
+  // app.get('/api/**', (req, res) => { });
+  // Serve static files from /browser
+  server.get('*.*', express.static(distFolder, {
+    maxAge: '1y'
+  }));
+
+  // All regular routes use the Universal engine
+  server.get('*', (req, res) => {
+    res.render('index', { req, providers: [{ provide: APP_BASE_HREF, useValue: req.baseUrl }] });
+  });
+
+  return server;

+
+  // Start up the Node server
+  const server = app();
+  server.listen(port, () => {
+    console.log(`Node Express server listening on http://localhost:${port}`);
+  });
