Istarted learning Express recently and I got amazed by realizing that how easy to get started with Express. If you are working with JavaScript mostly this will be super easy to learn. Especially if you are a frontend developer and wanted to get hands-on backend technologies this stack is perfect. So let’s dive into the article.
Express.js, or simply Express, is a back end web application framework for Node.js, released as free and open-source software under the MIT License. It is designed for building web applications and APIs. It has been called the de facto standard server framework for Node.js.
Express provides a thin layer of fundamental web application features, without obscuring Node.js features that you know and love.
With a myriad of HTTP utility methods and middleware at your disposal, creating a robust API is quick and easy.
Before starting the installation make sure to install Node.js. Create your directory and initiate your package.json
file.
Installation:
npm install express
#javascript #expressjs #nodejs
