Express hello world

A joke application.

How to set up

Note: I'm assuming you're running Ubuntu 22.04.

• Get nodejs and npm ready
  • Run sudo apt update and sudo apt install nodejs. Check that worked with node -v.
  • Run sudo apt install npm. Check that worked with npm -v.
• Init an npm project: npm init -y
• Modify package.json: you might want to add dependencies.
• Potentially add a start script.

How to run

• You can get the dev containers up and running with npm run start:containers. You can visit the app at localhost.
• If you would rather only run the express app locally, you can just do npm run start instead.
