Nodejs Express

Node.js Express

Minimalist web framework for Node.js with TypeScript support.

🚀 Quick Start

import express, { Request, Response } from 'express';

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

app.get('/api/users', (req: Request, res: Response) => {
    res.json([{ id: 1, name: 'John' }]);
});

app.listen(3000, () => console.log('Server running on port 3000'));
