NodeJS Server and Express

NodeJS is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. It allows developers to run JavaScript on the server side, which is ideal for building scalable and high-performance web applications. In our project, we used NodeJS to set up a server that would serve our frontend files and handle API requests.

Express is a popular NodeJS framework for building web applications. It provides a set of features and tools for building RESTful APIs, handling incoming requests, and rendering views. In our project, we used Express to handle HTTP requests, process incoming data, and serve the frontend files to the client.
