The API is already built for you and not part of the exercise.
However, if you're interested to learn how to build an API like this you can follow this series of videos: https://aka.ms/NodeBeginner (videos 17 through 21 covers this exact API).
You can also take a look at this interactive tutorial: https://aka.ms/learn/express-api
Make sure you have Node.js installed.
- Git clone this repo.
- Open a terminal in
apifolder, then runnpm install. - Run
npm start.
The server should start listening on port 5000.
Note: all entries are stored in-memory and are not persisted, so when the server is stopped all data is lost.
