Code Snippet

app.delete('/api/notes/:id', (req, res) => {
  var deletion = req.params.id
  for(var i = 0; i < notes.length; i++) {
      if(deletion == notes[i].id) {
        notes.splice(i, 1);
        break;
      }
      
  }
  fs.writeFile(path.join(__dirname, 'db/db.json'), JSON.stringify(notes), err => { });
  res.redirect('/notes');
});

In this example, I used the splice method to delete the selected note from the JSON object, then stringify it and save it inside the db.json file using fs.
