Can you please add a basic http module intro here. Comparing http with express will make more sense why we should use a framework!

Sure Subha Chanda, thanks for the feedback. I want to keep the article as long as it is now. But I am happy to write a separate article to explain why we need to use a framework and compare a framework-less Node.js server vs one with express :)
Great! Looking forward to the article! 😊 Victoria Lo
