In this tutorial we'll learn about Express, the free and open-source Node.js web application framework. Built on top of the Node.js built-in http module, Express helps us set up routing and handle the request/response cycle.
In this written and video tutorial, we'll take a look at some of the features of Express, learn what it can offer us that the built-in HTTP modules in Node.js can't, and explain why it's a great tool in any Node developer's toolbox.
By the end of this tutorial, you should be able to:
- Understand the benefits of working with a web framework like Express
- Identify core components that make up the Express framework
- Learn how Express uses middleware to extend its capabilities
