This is an example of how to mount LoopBack 4 REST API on a simple Express application.

## Setup

First, you'll need to install a supported version of Node:

- Node.js at v8.9 or greater

Additionally, this tutorial assumes that you are comfortable with certain technologies, languages and concepts.

- JavaScript (ES6)
- REST

Lastly, you'll need to install the LoopBack 4 CLI toolkit:

    npm i -g @loopback/cli

## Tutorial

Once you're ready to start, you can begin by visiting the tutorial page.

## Try it out

If you'd like to see the final results of this tutorial as an example application, follow these steps:

### Generate the example using CLI

1. Run the `lb4 example` command to select and clone the `express-composition` repository:

       $ lb4 example
       ? What example would you like to clone? (Use arrow keys)
        todo: Tutorial example on how to build an application with LoopBack 4.
        todo-list: Continuation of the todo example using relations in LoopBack 4.
        hello-world: A simple hello-world Application using LoopBack 4.
        log-extension: An example extension project for LoopBack 4.
        rpc-server: A basic RPC server using a made-up protocol.
        soap-calculator: An example on how to integrate SOAP web services.
       > express-composition: A simple Express application that uses LoopBack 4 REST API.

2. Jump into the directory and then install the required dependencies:

       cd loopback4-example-express-composition

3. Finally, start the application!

       $ npm start

       Server is running at http://127.0.0.1:3000

Feel free to look around in the application's code to get a feel for how it works.
