Nice Project. It reminds me of the Url Shortener on FreeCodeCamp. This took me MAYBE in minutes real-time to crank out, with typing and adding notes. The title is "Build it in 5 minutes", not "Hold my Hand as I walk you through the finer points of Express", so I'm not sure why people are complaining that you don't go into explicit detail regarding setup...
If you can't kick this little app out quickly, you're probably not ready to talk to recruiters.

Thanks for commenting Kieran!

I actually haven't seen that one so I will have to check it out!

I appreciate the support! I think many people have viewed the post with different expectations of how much support this post would provide for the more junior devs out there! Which is totally valid! I'm working to maintain a balance to not bore the more experienced viewers whilst still being able to provide value to the juniors! 💩
