Research direction

Start with the linked quote-server coursework in the Module-Servers repository and read its level 1 and level 2 instructions. Use Postman to exercise the simple Express GET endpoints as you work; done means completing the stated levels and challenges, then opening a pull request that follows the repository instructions.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Why are we doing this?
  • Practice building simple GET endpoints using Express.
  • Invoke API endpoints using client applications like Postman.

If you get through level 1 and 2 and challenges, please move to code reviewing other PRs in your cohort. What can you learn from these different approaches?
