Node.js project boilerplate

This repository is intended to be used as a template when creating new Node.js-based projects.

Setup

Node.js is a JavaScript run-time environment, which enables the use of JavaScript-based server-side scripts. In order to use it, you must first have Node.js installed. You can check if you have Node.js and npm installed by running the following in your terminal:

node -v && npm -v

If you don't have Node.js installed, follow the installation instructions on the Node.js website.
