Learn how to write a REST API in Node! Some experience with programming and API development is helpful but not required to follow the examples.

For a newcomer to the backend, it has been extremely helpful in gaining an understanding of CRUD operations and using Postman to monitor the response...

That is an excellent article.

Nice introduction to Node! 🔥

However, do you still need the bodyParser package? Afaik, Express implemented the functionality of Body Parser. Now, you can now use it as follows:

app.use(express.json())

Thanks, Catalin. Really appreciate it!

You are correct, in Express version 4.16 the body-parser was built in. I always auto-install body-parser out of old habits, so it is nice to learn I don't have to :)

I will update the example in the article.
