Some major Improvements in server/server.js #125

1. Handle Database Connection Errors Before Starting the Server Why It's Important: Ensuring that your application successfully connects to the database before accepting incoming requests is crucial. If the server starts without a database connection, it can lead to runtime errors, inconsistent behavior, and a poor user experience.

2. Remove Redundant Middleware Usage Why It's Important: Using both body-parser and Express's built-in body parsing middleware leads to unnecessary dependencies and can cause confusion or unexpected behavior. Streamlining your middleware stack improves performance and maintainability.

3. Enhance Security with Helmet Middleware Why It's Important: Security is paramount for any web application. helmet helps secure your Express apps by setting various HTTP headers, protecting against well-known vulnerabilities like cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and other common attacks.
