Building a REST API
Node.js REST API with Express handles CRUD operations with JSON.
Introduction to REST API with Express
A REST API (Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interface) allows for interaction with resources via HTTP requests. In Node.js, the Express framework simplifies the creation of RESTful web services by providing a robust set of features for building web and mobile applications.
In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to create a simple REST API using Express, handling basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations with JSON data.
