This repo is a pair of small Express exercises. It is not trying to be a product. It is there to make the basics easier to see.
At a glance
- Stack: Node.js, Express, EJS, body-parser
- Type: Learning repo
- Use: Practising routing, templates, and simple form handling
- Status: Exercises
What is in it
One app focuses on routing and EJS templates. The other handles a simple POST flow and re-renders an in-memory list. Splitting the examples keeps each one small enough to understand without a lot of noise around it.
Why it is useful
Small repos like this are still one of the fastest ways to learn a new framework. You can run the app, change one thing, and see the effect without a bigger architecture getting in the way.
What stands out
- The examples stay narrow, which makes them easier to reason about.
- The POST demo keeps data in memory on purpose so there is no setup barrier.
- Each folder has its own
package.json, so the boundaries are obvious.
What I would add
- A short README with exact run steps.
- Basic validation on the form example.
- A tiny JSON route to contrast rendered pages with API output.
