Guided Project for Node API 1 Module

Lambda Hubs Web API

Guided project for Node API 1 Module.

In this project we will learn how to create a very simple Web API using Node.js and Express, and cover the basics of server-side routing and using global middleware.

The code for the guided project will be written in a single file for simplicity. We'll see ways to structure an API to make it more maintainable in upcoming lectures.

Prerequisites

• a REST client like Insomnia or Postman installed.

Project Setup

• fork and clone this repository.
• CD into the folder where you cloned your fork.
• type npm i to download dependencies. This step is equivalent to using yarn for React Projects.

Please follow along as the instructor builds the API step by step.
