HTTP Server

The HTTP server that we currently use is based on the latest version of Express. We chose this framework for various reasons, but some of the plugins and support is already built in which makes developing with it much faster and more efficient.



Chances of change

There is some research currently that may hint to us using the HTTP server that node offers directly instead of using express, a few reasons though relate to the amount of dependencies that come with express, now at the moment this is not a problem, but in time we want to make the framework completely self isolated other than dev dependencies, like typescript, eslint, ts-node, etc.
