User Story

As a doctor,
I want the system to have a working back-end,
so that so that I can use it to send patient data to the front-end for visualisation.

Acceptance Criteria

• [x] The back-end shall make use of the Express framework to handle HTTP requests
• [x] The back-end shall have typescript as part of the dependencies allowing developers to use types to make the code readable and understandable
• [x] The back-end shall have nodemon and morgan packages installed. nodemon allows the back-end to restart running upon changes made to the code. morgan logs incoming HTTP requests to the console.
• [x] The back-end shall have general route /api/v1. When a request is sent to this route, the message Welcome to Codeiologist shall be sent to the front-end
• [x] The back-end shall run on port 5000 or use the port number saved on the environment variable called PORT.
• [x] The back-end shall handle requests sent to routes that do not exist and respond with status code 404and the message Not found.
• [x] The back-end shall use HTTPS
• [x] The back-end setup shall be modular to facilitate later development and maintenance.

Some of them are already done in the project setup that we did yesterday. Some are partly done and need some changes. I have checked the acc criteria that are done. Please @ me if there are any ambiguities, or ask in the discord channel.
