Building a REST API with Node.js

Step-by-Step API Development

This tutorial walks you through creating a production-ready REST API using Node.js and Express.

const express = require("express");
const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

app.get("/api/users", (req, res) => {
  res.json({ users: [] });
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log("Server running on port 3000");
});

Adding Authentication

Well use JWT tokens to secure our endpoints and implement role-based access control.

At vero eos et accusamus et iusto odio dignissimos ducimus qui blanditiis praesentium.
