Green Kiwi Backend Server

Description: This project serves as the backend server for Green Kiwi and is written in Express.js, And I was assigned as the backend developer. I was given just two days to develop the backend server during the competition, and although I was new to Express.js, with the team, I was able to successfully complete the backend server. This experience taught me that achieving fast production results requires both knowledge and the ability to work effectively as part of a team.

Design Pattern: Controller-Service-Repository

• Controller: used the controller to implement rest interface for the business logics.
• Service: applied the businnes logics to the service.
• Repository: stored the entities into the github.
