Module 2 - Server-Side Routing

Objectives

In this module, you'll learn about server-side routing in Express. Routing is a fundamental concept in web development, especially when building RESTful APIs. Proper routing helps structure your application and ensures that client requests are directed to the appropriate handlers.

Express Routing Fundamentals

  • Routing refers to how an application's endpoints (URIs) respond to client requests
  • Express provides mechanisms to define routes based on HTTP methods and URL patterns
  • Route handlers can perform operations and send appropriate responses
  • Express allows for modular routing through the Router class
