This code it is a basic boilerplate of a Express server. We have added comments so you can easily add the framework to your code

	var express    = require('express'); 		//We requre the package
	var app        = express(); 				//We create the server
	var bodyParser = require('body-parser');	//Body parser, now separated since 4.0
	app.use(bodyParser());						//We set the parser as the first middleware
	var port = process.env.PORT || 8080; 		//We define the port

	// ROUTES FOR OUR API
	// =============================================================================
	var router = express.Router(); 				// get an instance of the express Router
	require('letrest').config(app,router);
	app.use('/api', router);					//We add a base to the URL for all request
	app.listen(port);							//We start the server loop
