const app = expresso(port); // Pass an HTTP server instance as the second argument if needed
setMiddleware(app,middlewares);
setVals(app,vals);

// Serve static files (optional)
serveStaticFiles(app, 'public'); // 'public' is the folder containing static files

setMiddlewares.js

const express = require('express')
let expressJson = express.json()
