About

Express is a minimal and flexible Node.js web framework that lets developers build web apps and APIs using routing, middleware, template engines, and support for serving static assets.

It provides a robust routing system with support for HTTP verbs, built-in middleware for JSON and URL-encoded parsing, error handlers, and a large ecosystem of third-party plugins available through npm.

Sapper is an open-source Svelte framework for server-rendered and client-hydrated web applications that has been deprecated in favor of its successor, SvelteKit.

It supports file-based routing with server routes and pages, both Rollup and Webpack templates, legacy browser builds, and TypeScript.
