About

Express is a minimal and flexible Node.js web application framework that provides a robust set of features for web and mobile applications. With a myriad of HTTP utility methods and middleware at your disposal, creating a robust API is quick and easy. Express provides a thin layer of fundamental web application features, without obscuring Node.js features that you know and love. Express has no notion of a database. This concept is left up to third-party Node modules, allowing you to interface with nearly any database. In Express, 404 responses are not the result of an error, so the error-handler middleware will not capture them. This behavior is because a 404 response simply indicates the absence of additional work to do; in other words, Express has executed all middleware functions and routes, and found that none of them responded.

About

ReqKey adds API key authentication, usage credits, rate limiting and request analytics to an API you own. Your own middleware makes a single verify call per incoming request: ReqKey validates the caller’s key, deducts a credit from that consumer’s pool, enforces their rate limit, and records the request with status code, latency and location. It never sits in front of your API — no proxy, no gateway, no DNS change — so it adds no hop to your critical path. Validation averages under 5ms. Credits pool per consumer rather than per key, so issuing a customer a second key does not hand them a second quota, and balances stay synced across regions. Also included: shadow limits, controlled overage, reusable plans, low-credit alerts, and per-request logs filterable by endpoint, status, consumer and time range. ReqKey meters and tracks usage — you keep your own billing stack. SDKs for Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, PHP, .NET and Java, with framework adapters for FastAPI, Express, Django, and more.
