| summary | Express is a popular, open-source web application framework for Node.js, known for its minimalist design and flexibility. It serves as a routing and middleware foundation for web applications. The provided code snippet demonstrates the core components of an Express app:
1. `const express`: Imports the Express library. 2. `app = express()`: Creates an instance of the Express application. 3. `port = 3000`: Sets the port number for the server to listen on (in this case, 3000).
Express is built around middleware – functions that have pre-defined capabilities, which can be used to extend its functionality. These middlewares handle tasks like request parsing, authentication, and more, allowing developers to add custom logic through extension points. |
