node-api

node-api is an express server organized for simplicity.

Should you use this as a starting point for your api? A good way to know is if you answered yes to the following questions.

Do we use express and node.js latest stable version?

Do we not need babel transpiling?

Do we not need to send html view responses?

Quickstart:

Requirements:

node.js v6.9.1 npm v3.10.8 redis
