Anywhere on your machine, create a folder named REST-Logger. In this folder, we are going to build the Node.js server application.

npm init -y

var http = require('http');var server = http.createServer(function(req, res) { var jsonString = ''; req.on('data', function(data) { jsonString += data; }); req.on('end', function() { var data = JSON.parse(jsonString); ...
