The executable's major version will match Express's: 55 56 ```bash 57 $ npm install -g express-generator@4 58 ``` 59 60 Create the app: 61 62 ```bash 63 $ express /tmp/foo && cd /tmp/foo 64 ``` 65 66 Install dependencies: 67 68 ```bash 69 $ npm install 70 ``` 71 72 Start the server: 73 74 ```bash 75 $ npm start 76 ``` 77 78 ## Philosophy 79 80 The Express philosophy is to provide small, robust tooling for HTTP servers, making 81 it a great solution for single page applications, web sites, hybrids, or public 82 HTTP APIs. 83 84 Express does not force you to use any specific ORM or template engine. With support for over 85 14 template engines via [Consolidate.js](https://github.com/tj/consolidate.js), 86 you can quickly craft your perfect framework. 87 88 ## Examples 89 90 To view the examples, clone the Express repo and install the dependencies: 91 92 ```bash 93 $ git clone git://github.com/expressjs/express.git --depth 1 94 $ cd express 95 $ npm install 96 ``` 97 98 Then run whichever example you want: 99 100 ```bash 101 $ node examples/content-negotiation 102 ``` 103 104 ## Tests 105 106 To run the test suite, first install the dependencies, then run `npm test`: 107 108 ```bash 109 $ npm install 110 $ npm test 111 ``` 112 113 ## People 114 115 The original author of Express is [TJ Holowaychuk](https://github.com/tj) [![TJ's Gratipay][gratipay-image-visionmedia]][gratipay-url-visionmedia] 116 117 The current lead maintainer is [Douglas Christopher Wilson](https://github.com/dougwilson) [![Doug's Gratipay][gratipay-image-dougwilson]][gratipay-url-dougwilson] 118 119 [List of all contributors](https://github.com/expressjs/express/graphs/contributors) 120 121 ## License 122 123 [MIT](LICENSE) 124 125 [npm-image]: https://img.shields.io/npm/v/express.svg 126 [npm-url]: https://npmjs.org/package/express 127 [downloads-image]: https://img.shields.io/npm/dm/express.svg 128 [downloads-url]: https://npmjs.org/package/express 129 [travis-image]: https://img.shields.io/travis/expressjs/express/master.svg?label=linux 130 [travis-url]: https://travis-ci.org/expressjs/express 131 [appveyor-image]: https://img.shields.io/appveyor/ci/dougwilson/express/master.svg?label=windows 132 [appveyor-url]: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/dougwilson/express 133 [coveralls-image]: https://img.shields.io/coveralls/expressjs/express/master.svg 134 [coveralls-url]: https://coveralls.io/r/expressjs/express?branch=master 135 [gratipay-image-visionmedia]: https://img.shields.io/gratipay/visionmedia.svg 136 [gratipay-url-visionmedia]: https://gratipay.com/visionmedia/ 137 [gratipay-image-dougwilson]: https://img.shields.io/gratipay/dougwilson.svg 138 [gratipay-url-dougwilson]: https://gratipay.com/dougwilson/
