My First Server

// // This code will create a Node Express program that uses forms for input. It will create a route for GET requests, which will render an HTML form, and a route for POST requests, which will retrieve the form data from the request body and send back a response. Finally, it will assign a port and start the server. // // When you submit the form, you will get an output in the form of a response. The response will include the name and age that you entered in the form.
