This repository contains the source for the Express web site and documentation, the canonical reference for developers using the Express framework. It organizes material into API reference, getting-started guides, best practices, and topic-focused explanations such as routing, middleware, error handling, templating, and performance. Versioned docs help readers match API behavior to the framework version they’re running, reducing confusion during upgrades. The site showcases common patterns through concise examples, making it easy to translate concepts into working code. In addition to core Express usage, the documentation surfaces ecosystem guidance on things like security headers, structured logging, and integration with view engines or ORMs. Because it is open to community contributions, the documentation evolves alongside Express itself, reflecting real-world questions and solutions.
