/ About /

Express.js is a minimal and flexible Node.js web application framework that provides a robust set of features for building web and mobile applications and APIs. It offers a thin layer of fundamental web features without obscuring the underlying Node.js functionality. The framework is highly extensible through a rich ecosystem of middleware modules.

/ How it works /

Express wraps Node.js HTTP functionality with a routing layer and middleware system, allowing developers to define routes and process requests with chainable handler functions.
