HTTP Server & Express.js in Node.js | Routing, Request & Response Explained

*HTTP Server & Express.js in Node.js | Routing, Request & Response Explained* In this video, we'll learn how to create an HTTP server using Node.js and understand how routing works. We'll also get introduced to Express.js, one of the most popular frameworks used for backend development with Node.js. We'll start by building a basic HTTP server using Node.js's built-in HTTP module and then simplify the process using Express.js. *📌 Topics Covered:* Introduction to HTTP and HTTP Servers Creating an HTTP server using Node.js Understanding `http.createServer()` Understanding Request (`req`) and Response (`res`) objects Using `server.listen()` to start a server Understanding `req.url` and `req.method` Implementing basic routing using if-else conditions Handling 404 - Page Not Found What is Express.js? Installing and setting up Express.js Creating a server using Express Basic routing using `app.get()` Handling dynamic routes using route parameters Understanding `req.params` *💻 Practical Implementation:* We'll build a basic HTTP server first and then create an Express server with multiple routes, including dynamic routes and a POST endpoint. *🎯 Who should watch?* Beginners learning Backend Development Students learning Node.js and Express.js Anyone interested in building REST APIs and backend applications If you find this video helpful, LIKE, SHARE and SUBSCRIBE for more backend development tutorials! #NodeJS #ExpressJS #HTTPServer #BackendDevelopment #RESTAPI #JavaScript #WebDevelopment
