  • Nodemon.io

    Monitor for any changes in your node.js application and automatically restart the server - perfect for development

    If you like extra credit or are an overachiever like myself, then stick around for a little tool called Nodemon. What is Nodemon you ask? Well, according to the documentation:

  • Express

    Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for node.

    In order to ease server-side development with node and offer an easier interface to work with the built-in http module, we can use a backend framework called Express.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
