Description

Express is a popular unopinionated web framework, written in JavaScript and hosted within the Node.js runtime environment. This module explains some of the key benefits of the framework, how to set up your development environment and how to perform common web development and deployment tasks.

Node (or more formally Node.js) is an open-source, cross-platform runtime environment that allows developers to create all kinds of server-side tools and applications in JavaScript. The runtime is intended for use outside of a browser context (i.e. running directly on a computer or server OS)

Express is a fast, minimalist framework that sits on top of Node.js and allows you to build powerful single- and multi-page web applications and websites.

Express JS is built with Node JS and is a web framework that can help developers build faster and smarter websites and web apps. NodeJS is a server-side technology built using JavaScript. Express can also be integrated with other modules and databases and offers HTTP utilities and middleware for creating APIs.

This course will teach you the very basics in practical steps from installation to creating basic routes and using various http request and response status codes. You will learn how to use a useful tool called postman to test http request methods and also the response and status codes. We will also be learning how to install mongodb database and integrate it into our express app.

By the end of the course we would have created a basic functional express server integrated with a mongoDB database.
