How does node's require functionality get installed on a server?

My understanding is that you have to go through node in order to use the require functionality that pulls other files into a specific file's scope. How does this (or node in general) get deployed to production?

I tried having a folder with npm initialized inside and had an index.html referring to another script and using require in there but it didn't work. Unless I node that file, the require won't work. So how does node get onto the server?
