It is used to control access to resources (e.g., APIs) on different domains, ensuring proper security and preventing unauthorized access.dotenv: dotenv is a library that allows the loading of environment variables from a .env file into the application's environment. It is used in this development environment to manage sensitive configuration information, such as the API key.express: Express is a popular web application framework for Node.js. It provides a simple and flexible way to build web applications and APIs. Express is used to build the server-side of this application and handle routing, middleware support, and request/response.nodemon: Nodemon is a development tool that monitors changes in your Node.js applications and automatically restarts the server when files are modified.axios: Axios is a popular JavaScript library used for making HTTP requests from the browser or Node.js.
