Branch Information 💻

1. static-middleware

The express.static() middleware that comes shipped with express, automatically servers the index.html on root url '/' without having to create a route using app.get( '/' )

app.use( express.static( 'public' ) )

2. custom-middleware

• Creates a custom middleware called loggerMiddleWare.
• Run npm run dev
• Open browser at http://localhost:5000
• Every time you refresh the page, a GET request to http://localhost:5000/ is made and the middleware intercepts that request and when the response for that request is finished it calculates the time it took for that request to complete and prints that.
