Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing Node.js server stub generation templates in swagger codegen, specifically the 'connect' middleware template. Identify the template files and code that generate the middleware. Then, create a new template for Express middleware, following the pattern of the connect middleware. Modify the code generator to accept a parameter for choosing between connect and Express. Finally, test the generated Express middleware with a sample API.
