  • index.js: Main Express application file.
  • recipe.json: JSON file containing taco recipes.
  • public/: Directory containing static files (CSS).
  • views/: Directory containing EJS templates.

Dependencies

  • Express.js: Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for Node.js.
  • EJS: Embedded JavaScript templates for rendering dynamic content.
  • body-parser: Node.js body parsing middleware, required for handling POST requests.
