I have followed along with the video and set up a router that uses the api/ namespace. However when I try to visit the /todos page, I get an error 'Cannot GET /todos'. This is my code:
'use strict';
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.use('/', express.static('public'));
var router = express.Router();
router.get('/todos', function(req, res){
res.json({todos:[]});
});
app.use('/api', router);
app.listen(3000, function() {
console.log("Server running on port 3000");
});

Courses Plus Student 22,267 PointsI just discovered the answer. I thought by defining the route /api for the router I could just call localhost:3000/todos. But this isn't the case. I still need to call /api/todos as defined in the router.
