What am I doing wrong in this code?
const express = require('express');
const posts = require('./mock/posts.json');
const app = express();
app.set('view engine', 'pug');
app.set('views', __dirname + '/templates')
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.render('main',posts = {});
});
app.listen(3000, () => {
console.log("The frontend server is running on port 3000!");
});

res.render('main', {posts});
or
res.render('main', {posts : posts});
