What does Express provide over just using Connect?
Most of the features of Express seem to be features of Connect.
Is there a list of what Express provides?
Thanks,
Chris.
Express is a node js web application framework that provides broad features for building web and mobile applications. It is used to build a single page, multipage, and hybrid web application. It's a layer built on the top of the Node js that helps manage servers and routes.
ExpressJS and connect are parallel projects. Connect is just a middleware framework, with a nice use function. Express does not depend on Connect (see package. json).
ExpressJS is a web application framework for NodeJS. That's what mainly makes the difference between Express JS and Node JS. The former provides various features that make web application development fast and easy, which otherwise takes more time using only the latter.
What does Express provide over just using Connect?
Higher level of abstraction (web framework centric), template engines, view rendering.
Is there a list of what Express provides?
I would say Express guide lists quite good summary of it's features with examples.
