Build HTTP APIs with routing, middleware, validation, controllers, and error handling.
Lessons
Send responses with res and control status, headers, and body.
The Response Object is easiest to learn by reading the example, changing it, and observing the result.
import express from 'express';
const app = express();
app.use(express.json());
app.get('/api/lessons', (req, res) => {
res.json([{ slug: 'express-routing', title: 'Express Routing' }]);
});
app.post('/api/lessons', (req, res) => {
res.status(201).json({ created: true, title: req.body.title });
});
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000);Practice the The Response Object example in a small scratch file, then explain what changed and why.
