Express: Note Taker

Here is a tool to help you stay organized - write, save, delete notes!

This application uses an express backend, saving and retrieving JSON stored data.

• HTML routes were created:
  • GET /notes - return the notes.html file.
  • GET * - return the index.html file

• db.json file on the backend is used to store and retrieve notes using the fs module.

• API routes were created:
  • GET /api/notes reads db.json file and returns all saved notes as JSON.
  • POST /api/notes receives a new note to save on the request body, adds it to the db.json file, and then returns the new note to the client.
  • DELETE /api/notes/:id receives a query parameter containing the id of a note to delete. Each note is given a unique id when it’s saved.
    • To delete a note . . .
      1. read all notes from the db.json file
      2. remove the note with the given id property
      3. rewrite the notes to the db.json file
