I'm linking a css file to my express-handlebars file but I am getting this error:
Refused to apply style from 'http://localhost:4000/cs366/style/draft.css' because its MIME type ('text/html') is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled.
I have the static directory set, and my css is being applied to home.handlebars, but not fantasyDraft.handlebars
My file directory

fantasyRouting.JS - Handles the routes for a part of the application to avoid clutter in app.js
const express = require('express');
const router = express.Router();
router.post('/', (req, res) => {

To Solve MIME type ('text/html') is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled ErrorJust make Sure Your File name and the name You are Using in Link Tag Both Are Same.
A media type (also known as a Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions or MIME type) indicates the nature and format of a document, file, or assortment of bytes. MIME types are defined and standardized in IETF's RFC 6838.
It's because of relative path that your html is unable to find the correct css. With express files served as static is relative to express route path not actual folder path.
Since everything inside your public folder is served as static, use absolute path, makes things easier:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/style/draft.css" />
