This app stores a list of a board game names and their descriptions in an array of objects in a local JSON file. The website supports basic CRUD operations (create, read, update and delete) through a RESTful interface using HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE).

HTML forms DO NOT support HTTP methods PUT and DELETE, so jQuery is used to intercept user interactions when someone tries to submit an edit form or clicks on a delete link. jQuery uses .preventDefault() to halt the normal action and creates an AJAX request instead.

1. Download the repo.
2. use 'npm install' to install dependencies
3. run nodemon to start the server
4. visit the page running at http://localhost:3000

Implement the routing for all the routes in the next section.

Suggested order of operations:

1. Do the GET routes first. Then, POST, PUT, DELETE.
2. For each route:
   1. Write the routing logic in app.js
   2. Create the template inside the folder views/games/
   3. Pass data from the route handler in app.js to the template (res.render)
   4. If required, listen for events in JS (static/js/main.js) and use AJAX

• Use gamesWithNull.json instead of games.json. How will you make sure you're using an object instead of a null value?
• Replace synchronous I/O functions with asynchronous. (fs.readFile instead of fs.readFileSync)
• Use a database instead of games.json
